JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Post up your pics of a 2.5" Lift and 35" Tires

I haven't disconnected my sway bars yet. But I've done some mild wheeling and the only rubbing I had was at full lock the tire would rub the stock plastic under bumper skid plate air dam thing a little. I went with a Skid Row Front Skid Plate and that eliminated any rubbing issues I had. But again, I'm not sure if I may get a little rub on other parts of the jeep if I was flexing with the sway bars disconnected. Hope that answers your question.

Did any of you have to cut the pinch weld (seam) just ahead of the rear tire in the rear wheel well?

I'm pretty sure that's only when you go bigger than 35's. But either way I know I didn't have to.

Just barely rubs, no damage so there is nothing to worry about! If you want to get away from that extend your bumpstops.

Here is mine. it has a TF 2.5 BB and 35" Nitto Mud grapplers. and yes I had to cut the rock slider and the pinch seam. at full flex it was only a fraction of a millimeter away not a chance I wanted to take on damaging a 300.00 tire.
