Mickey Thompson Classic 2 Rims and Suspension Question
G'Day all!
Have been told that the old wheels available in Aus for the JK are the Mickey Thompson Classic 2's in a 17x9 with 5.5 Backspacing. Am getting a set of these on my JK with 33 12.5R17 Dick cepek FC2 Tyres. Just wondering if these will fit (and not rub) with no lift. Also have ordered a Teraflex 2.5" BB, some Teraflex Swaybar Disco's and some Procomp Shocks to suit. Will this be a good set-up flex wise? Thanks! |

I think you may need to double check. I have MT Classic II and they are 5by5 bolt pattern with 4.5 back spacing. I am not sure with Teraflex or have no experience but I am extremely happy with Full Traction 3" Ultimate suspension. Where are you abouts from Oz?? |
Ah
Just checked, sorry they are a 5x5 Bolt Pattern on a 17x9 standard Backspace (assuming 4.5). Used to GQ Patrol stuff where things are still in Degrees! :) I'm in Hobart BTW |
MT Classic II's
Hi AusJK.
I am running the MT Classic II's with 33x12.5x17 MT Baja MTZ with a 4" Skyjacker. I think you will find with no lift you will get some rubbing. Hi Zac have you sold your JK yet? I saw you revised the price on it! Looks pretty cool mate, sad to see your letting it go. |
Hello Mate
Its good to see some Aussies here. I am gald. No I am mot selling my JK anymore. Thank GOD I needed some extra money to help a friend or relative but that is sorted. I see you are from Sydney. Are you the one who had his JK done from CAL also. I was the first escape goat and drove all the way to Cooma from Melb to get the suspension done. How is the Skyjacker lift? I wanted to go with 35" Tires but bec of the height problem where i live i went with 33 and very happy. Cheers |
I put on that exact wheel and tire combo with the Tera BB 2.5 and everything is great.

Hi Zac.
Yeah that's me. Cal did a great job on mine as well. Good to hear you are not selling it mate:2thumbs: I am happy the the Skyjacker 4" so far, no complaints yet! He did install adj panhards for me instead of the trackbar relocation brackets that where supplied with the kit. I will be going with a larger tyre when I redo my diff ratios possibly 37":yup: Just hanging to get some time outside Sydney with it ... Well mate happy Jeeping and post a few pics of it in action when you can. Cheers, |
Thanks Mate
By the way if you are looking for diff ratios let me know i will try to help u. I just had mine changed to 4:58 along with ARB lockers. I will be test driving with 35" next week so will let you know. try David Northridge 4x4 he is great for any parts especially for gears and overhaul kits Cheers |

No probs mate, when I'm ready will let you know.
I have been eyeing out A to Z Fabs KAJE Rocker Guards. Does anyone have these on their jeep yet? Any info will help> |
No mate have not seen them on any JK BUT have you seen the rocker guards from ARB they look pretty solid strong and they weld to the body. I am not sure with the pricing but the will be out soon.
