As the title says I have 2k cash to spend. For right now daily driver, no off roading. And not working as much but I want that jeep look. You all know that look. So this is what I am thinking. Teraflex 2.5 bb ($300) Teraflex wheel adapters to keep stockers ($120.00) 5 Nitto 295/70//18 34.5 trail grapplers ($1475) Labor to install ($250) Total ($2150) So will have to spend a little on the card no big deal. What are your opinions. 2nd question Teraflex tire carriers is in my plans just not in the budget right now will my stock carrier hold up with that tire for awhile since I will be not doing any offroading. Big plans coming just put on hold for right now. An yes please don't say save till you can get what you want it's going to be awhile. And I don't want to wait need a Bette stance right now. Thanks for any replies this is my jeep now.

 

Stock carrier will work for now, just keep an eye on it. Maybe think about Terra Grapps instead of Trails maybe if you're no going to wheel it. From what I've seen those do pretty well too. Save you a few bucks, unless of course you need that look, I understand, lol.

If it were me I'd find some inexpensive 17" wheels instead of the 18" stickers. If you do go off road it'll be better off. Tires are cheaper too.

 

I'd say eliminate the 5th tire and budget boost and use that money for a true lift. There has plenty of sick deals on used lifts on here or get a cheaper 2.5/3.5" lift. Save the install money by recruiting somebody from the forum with some food and beer and make a new friend/Jeep buddy and at the same time learn your way around your Jeep.(If you don't know already!)If your not planning on wheeling eliminate the spare until you can afford it and get a tramp stamp or a similar cover. Trim those beautiful painted fenders and you could run a larger tire too. Good luck and nice Jeep!

 

Agree. I would skip the spare, and go with a coil lift over a BB. If you do decide to go with the spare, the carrier should hold up for awhile, but you will need a spacer or bracket to move the tire out.

 

Or skip the 18" wheels and go to 15". 35s are about $230 per tire vs 18s at $$$$$$$$$$.

 

My 2 cents! TF leveling kit, new around $160 used can be had for around $100. Get some slightly used Rubi shocks. It does improve the ride a bit from sport shocks. The leveling kit boasts 33-34" tires and trim the factory flares. It would compliment your sliders and bumpers. Used or bleamed Spidertrax spacers and also one more for spare. Install yourself save some bucks. Check out TRAUMAHEADs rig he is running 35" with that kit. Sweet!

 

What is the main deal swapping out the Sahara shocks to rubi shocks.
