Thought I would share.











Only thing that rubs right now is the front tires on that stupid plastic wannabe skid plate. When the wheels are turn completely to one side I got about a half inch between the tires and bumper. YES a lift will be going on soon.

Anyone know if the gas mileage computer goes out of whack once the bigger tires are added?


Sonn i'll be adding fab four bumpers and a 3inch lift.

 

Looks good!

And yes, your speedo is now way off, and thus your mileage readout is off as well.

So you will need to either get a programmer just for the speedo (like a ProCal), or go with a SuperChip's or the like.

As for a lift, I would keep it in the 2-2.5" range. Will give you plenty of tire clearance, and keep a nice low COG.

 

looks good. perfect for Oz. Our government is way to strict - 2" max lift, 1" tire dia increase
hopefully soon they will allow 2" lift and 2" tire.
should be able to get away with a setup similar to yours then

 

The speedo is fixed but my computer says im still getting the same gas mileage

 

a couple of things. first off. waaay cool. looks awesome. two: just remove that air dam -it's not a skid plate, it's an aerodynamic piece of plastic. three: why lift? your Jeep is much more stable now that it was stock, and way more than it will be if you lift it. instead of lifting it, and changing the dynamics of the suspension, why not skidplate it, install longer shocks and brake lines for more droop? unless your racing in the desert, you don't need any more uptravel, you need downtravel, which the lift isn't going to give you more of.

just thoughts. and again.....way cool. I wish more people would do this.

 

Looks great. I have those flares and was considering the same thing, but without adding a lift at all. I mean you gained 3 inches already, why increase your rollover threat? Anyone know if just going to 35" tires affects your warranty? I have a lifetime.

 

lots of threads on here regarding the voiding of warranty. technically, going from a 31" or 32" to a 35" tire is modifying your vehicle. if the dealership wants to back out of your warranty, you might get the dreaded "flag".

 

The ground clearance gain would be around 1.5 inches.

 

Duh. You're right. Forgot half of that would be above and half below the axle.

 

That looks so good.
Basically what I want, I love rescue green with black rims
