My 07 Sahara has new Goodrich KM's (32") with 17" black soft 8s. Took off 18" stock wheels. I like the new look and 32" tires are all I need. From the ground to the fender is 37". Should I install a 2" BB now or get the RR bumper I want.

I'm a newbe and love this form. Been reading it for a year and decided to join. Reading the threads helped me to learn about my Jeep and how to use it.

 

Carefully consider the lift hieght you want and what you want to do with your JK before you buy. Do it right the first time and donst spend money needlessly. If you truly want just a 2 inch lift then I say go for the best you can afford (maybe a 2.5" coil lift). If you are truly happy with the ride hieght and capability and just want to ballance the front with the extra weight of a bumper then mayby consider the daystar 1 3/4" poly spacer.

 

X2 ^^^what 09rubi said^^^ Also, if I were you I'd do it yourself. Most of the smaller lifts are really simple and would only take a couple of hours and the satisfaction of a job well done makes it worth your time. Plus you know the parts that were touched, altered, loosened and tightened. Reading about a lift "how to" online and doing it are like night and day. My $0.02
Here is a Teraflex 2.5" BB on the 32" MTs.

just another opinion

 

Welcome to the forum. I'm in a similar dilemma as you, but I'm going to buy the lift first, then add everything else after that. Most people on here agree that buying a lift and tires are the two best mods that you can make to your Jeep. What part of STL are you from? Im in South County.

 

Hey, North County Here.

 

Id get the bumper. If youre only going to run 32's then there is really no reason for a lift since the rubi's come stock with that size. Bumper unless youre planning on wheeling it quite a bit.
