Metalcloak Thread

I have not added any weight yet. Was planning on getting bumpers, but thought it would look funny without a lift.

Other people in this thread reported 3.5" from the coils. There can also be a variance in height with specific tires or tire psi's or whether they are measuring or just regurgitating the mfg spec. Measure your current height, measure the door, figure the appx height the tires will be, and make a semi-educated guess.

Do some quick math. My old setup was 4" actual height, these 3.5" coils put me up around 4.5". My stock 32's measured out to 31", my current 37's measure out at 36" under load. 4.5" from the coils + 3" from the tires = 7.5" taller than I started.

Measured roof height at rear of hardtop... 76 inches. My garage door opening is 82 inches, so 6 inches of clearance with 35's and 3.5" Metalcloak lift. The only added weight is PSC brawler front and rear bumpers.

You will be fine. I have a standard garage door and am running 37's and the MC 3.5 game changer Arb edition. There not a ton of extra room, but I fit just fine. Now if you have a CB antenna and or hi lift that sticks above the roof line, you might want to remove those before driving in.

I'm thinking about replacing my MCE fenders with the Hardlines mainly because I like the looks of them better. Painted black they will look better than the dark gray plastic and my premium soft top. Does anyone know how much each Hardline fender weighs??

What diff cover is everyone running? Any issues with clearance on the MC trackbar? Think SOLID, PSC, blue torch fab, etc...
Also, anyone have experience with ruff stuff tie rods or drag links and clearance with the diff and trackbar?
