Are those 35s? Are you using spacers?

Well the sidewall says 35 but they come up a little short of that. Yeah I am running spydertrax wheel spacers since I am running stock wheels. The plan is to get some aftermarket wheels after I swap out the gears. No issues with the spacers, I check them at every oil change when I rotate my tires. Usually around 5k miles. They have been to Moab and several local trails with zero issues.

Yeah they are "35s" but compared to the stock tire they are still bigger and look much better. I did a 2.5 lift like you and I am still running stock wheels and tires. Looking for 35s and wheels currently.

Unfortunately my front axle lock is now constantly flashing... Will need to take care of that before the tires.

So I have to replace my drag link end at the pitman arm. Found one at NAPA with a lifetime warranty and you can grease it. Part number NCP2693257 if that helps anyone. Paid around $40 for it.

So I replaced my old version of the PS diff covers with the new version, believe they came out a couple years ago with them. My tie rod no longer hits the diff cover at full lock. It's close but should be alright. Here's the difference between the old(right)and new(left).

Gears were probably the best mod to date. So much better on the highway and on the trail. Had a chance to do the Morrison Jeep trail this last week. Everything worked out great.
