Default Help me complete my set up plx

ht tp://zoneoffroad.com/product?ki=69&gr=-1

So what's missing on this zone 5" lift.
Can I add 2" spacers on it ? I'm going with 4"-6" J.E Reel 1311 C.V. Driveshafts

What's needed to roll 35s besides regearing to 5.13?

Most of my Offroading consists of dunebashing, and sometimes rockcrawlig.

I wanna build it right the first time so I don't have to keep my jeep in the garage waiting for the stuff to ship over here :p

09' 2Dr Auto and it's my daily drive.

Is there a reason that you need 7 inches of lift to run 35's ?? That should easily clear 40's... (even the notes on that kit say it will fit 37's without the extra 2" spacers)


You might want to browse through the faq's for some good background on lift height vs tire size, recommended components for various heights, gearing, etc.

You don't want to run 7 inches of lift with 35's. It will look weird.

So true! You could just about clear 35's with ONLY the 2" spacers.

Wouldn't that much lift cause more problems than it solves?

Might add the 2" later if I get bored of the 5". I'm just indulging myself XD

Yes, but what we re trying to say is that 5in of lid will make 35's look small :I and the lift will probably provide more actual lift than that.. If I were you I would go 5in of lift an either 37's or 40's. Bit that's just me, and it's not my jeep or money. So do what you want.. :p
