JK Info I’ve crawled all over the forums and can find any good info...
Looking into doing a 6.0 on3 blah blah blah... I want to make my Jeep into a street hound and have fun at the strip. I haven’t really seen any builds though, specifically the JK.
What would I do about bracing and suspension for putting power to the ground?
Ive built 1 denmah inspired catfish but building a 4x4 has me wondering how that would work with having to change out the front diff as well.
Any input or links is appreciated!

I thought about doing the same but only with a TJ. I think better adjustable upper and lower control arms. 1350 u-joints all around. I think the JK frame will handle the stress quite well. You already have a roll cage. I kind of compare the coil spring suspensions of the TJ and JK to the older Chevelle's coil spring setup. When I launch my 98 Wrangler with the LS1 it lifts straight up and then goes. Pays to be going in a straight line when you do this.
In regards to the front axle I've thought about maybe adapting a C5or C6 front end?
You could put really wide tires front and rear and cover them with the wide aftermarket flares.
Lower it as much as possible you might have real auto crosser?
Better/bigger sway bars front and rear using rod ends instead rubber bushings.
Sounds like a fun project.
