Default Greetings, new here

Just starting out with my 2016 rubicon. Finished install of OCF rock rails and have been shopping for both bumpers and lift kit, trying to stay around 3" suspension, which leads to 33" tires. Any input? trying to stay on a budget so maybe 1500 - 2000 total for bumpers and lift kit for now.

3" of lift will allow 37's. 33" tires don't need a lift.

Default Thanks dirtman

It is still a daily driver , so I simply meant I was going to upsize from the 31" factory to 33". Not that I need the lift to put on 33"'s. That's as big as I need for now.

You say you have a budget, why run more lift then you need. More lift=more money with little to no benefit.

@ jairme11

Road Armor bumpers will provide you with the best off-road protection, manufactured to be sturdy and durable, they will securely shield your Jeep from damages.

You actually can get a complete combo of front and rear off-road bumpers for ~2K. I'm sure our Sales guys will find a nice deal for you if you go way over the budget.

Follow the link to check all the bumpers out:

We have lots of lift kit options as well, most of them could provide your Jeep with a 3''-2,5'' lift you are looking for. Check nthem all out here:

Welcome......you can spend very little on a lift or a whole lot on the lift........I've done a lot to research and plan to get a metal cloak game changer, not because I need it now....but because it's a great lift and I will eventually run 37's.....I only want to do it once....
