Hello

New owner of a 96 HZJ73. Goals with are for it to be my daily driver and light off-roading rig. Short term plans are to go over what I have and start fresh with all the maintenance. Long term goals are upgrading the suspension, tires, some simple bumpers and a front winch. It needs some tools, a jack, and a spare to start for sure.

Initial thoughts
OME 2" med lift and some good shocks.
Looking at some 315/70R17 Toyo MTs, those are getting a bit dated, but its hard to find a modern tire that isn't a load range E
Rims I have no clue about, I know I want simple and no spacers.
Bumpers, something simple like the Trail gear rock defense.

If I ran out of stuff to do, if possible, converting one of these to AWD with a LSD in the rear and a locker in the front would be neat.
