i bought the skyjacker 3/4 spacer from summit with my winch, you think i can put that up front with the Teraflex BB to level it out?

Yeah, i'm mucking with the html, and have a copy printing but the pictures are pretty small. At least I got all the advertisements and qna off.. only 7 pages now.

Now I'm gonna go break my jeep.

Default Winch weight and 35 inch tires

Two Questions:
1-Do I want to add a 1/2 or 3/4 spacer to front to level the Jeep w/the BB install (assuming I am buying a winch)? I have seen other JKs around w/winches and they look like they are balancing on their tip toes. Like if they were to brake hard downhill they'd topple over

2-Does 2.5 inches give me enough space for 35 inch tires?

Add the spacer during the lift, 3/4". I didnt and had a rake, so I ordered the spacers and now need to install them. Its cheap and will save you time to do it all at once.

Plenty of people run 35's with a BB, might have some slight rubbing on the fenders also might be a little doggy on the highway.

Looks great! Did you have to do the track bar relocate? My lift went in last summer (07). I'm still running the Rubicon stockers but want to do 35s. I will probably be doing wheels as well but just want to bolt them on with no problems. Any suggestions. I've seen so many different variables and just want to do it once and right. I did have an alignment done right after we lifted it.

Thanks!

i just ordered my teraflex BB and should get it on tuesday!
i wanna put a winch on my jeep later so i was thinkin i might as well get that other spacer and do it all at one time to save my self a headache of puttin it in later but when i brought up another spacer for the front the guy at my local 4X4 shop said i couldnt put it on?
He said the reason was because i didnt get new springs i got the BB with just shocks!
is that true??
