Anyone got anymore pics? I think this is the way I'm gonna go for now until I save up some more money.
And hello everyone! I'm new to the community and this site has all kinds of good info. Just got my first jeep and can't wait to start using it on the trails.

FYI...I'm going to add teraflex leveling kit soon, but I got all my stuff from forum members slightly used. I only got less than $1300 and installed myself with a buddy.

Remember this is not my daily driver. My goal i was tring to run the least amount of lift with as little up travel and max down travel as possible. If I keep running this set up im sure my control arm bushings will not last very long. If I drove it everyday I would regear but the 3:21s work excellent off road with open diffs I did come from a 2012 4 door rubi with 5:13s on 37s so I have something to compare too as you can see in the video it was very slick mud and keeps all 4 tires on the ground and walks through.
- Coil springs out of a 4dr hardtop rubicon 3/4" front coil spring spacers that's it for lift.
- No rear sway bar it does make a difference.
- Shocks im running are procomp es 9000 12.8" travel they are cheap and worked good for experimental purposes.
- 3" bumpstops front and rear.
- Currie rear spring retainer kit and front clips I made.
- Nemesis front shock relocation.
- Front brake lines cut off the metal bracket and they are plenty long enough the 2012 and 2013 have long front brake lines as for the rear lines I just unbolted where they mount to the frame have the longer lines just have not put them on yet.
- Factory fender flares and trimmed the rear wheel well folded over the pinch seam in the front of the well and cut metal out of the rear part of the well trimmed it right up to the holes to mount the flares.
- Tires Cooper STT 37/12.50/17 Wheels XD addicts 17x9 4.5" backspacing usa alloy 1.5" wheel spacers.
Hope this helps.
