Misc. Should I modify my suspension and wheels/tires, or sell and buy a CJ7 already done.

I have an original 1986 CJ7 with 14,000 miles,4 speed with bigger Dana Rear and wide track. I love the medium blue color and it operates well. The Jeep is completely original except for tires, battery, and spark plugs. I have the hard top and hard doors. I want to lift it some with OME and YJ spring conversion. Nice wheels and tires and some new shocks. My question is this- should I leave it alone, sell it, and buy a modified CJ7 , or does it make sense to make this one my own and do it the way I want to? Sometimes modifying an original vehicle is spending good money after bad. Any thoughts? Thank you!

Just my two cents.

That thing is clean. And low mileage. You will never have another one like it.

With that being said what your after can be accomplished without cutting welding etc. I know the ome YJ spring conversion i bought is completely bolt on. Meaning if you keep all your original parts wheels etc it can be returned to factory at any point. Meaning you can have your cake and eat it too.

There is no way in heck I would get rid of that fantastic, clean, special Jeep. If you buy one you never know what gremlins live in it.
Do what you wish and make it your own...
