i run 39.5 iroks with allied 32 bolt beadlocks on my efi 85 reg cab pickup, 30 spline bobby longs with hub hears, hydro assist, 5.29's, marlin high steer arms and currently stock knuckle studs(i have arps', just havn't had the time to put them in yet).  I love the 39.5's, almost makes most trails too easy though.  DO IT!

i'm only going to do the arp's.  as long as you keep everything torqued, you will be good.  I wouldn't go with the 6-shooters, you won't be able to do the 25mm pin upgrade if you do.  the 25mm upgrade is going to be next for me, then I think I will be dialed in.

Have you done this yet? I'm curious how the 39.5's and the 4.88's work together. I too have 4.88's and would like to run 39.5 but it just seems to far away from each other...... Can't help but feel like a 5.29 or smaller would be better for that much tire.
Jeeps are expensive....time to try something else

I don't think you will notice much difference on the trail doubled down with 39.5's and 4.88's vs. 5.29's.  you will notice a big difference on the road though.
