Curious to know who's done a tummy tuck on their jk

 

Not many people at all... Hell some people drop there frame belly height lower to get more frame separation...

 

The only way to do it is by going to a 2 speed Atlas and clocking it up. Stock t case hangs way low. Then you need to modify the trans crossmember and mount.

As Maertz pointed out, you have other factors at play which question the value in the effort. No sense in doing it if you aren't going to tuck all the frame and axle brackets up. The next problem you have is that you'll have a really hard time getting decent separation (assumes you go to some sort of triangulated setup).

I'm still debating if I will do it on my build. Adds a ton of extra work.

 

On mine i was able to tuck the stock tcase high enough to put a flat bar across but youd have to get creative in the bracing on your skid.. As mine is now my crossmember is a 4x2 rectangle tube bolted to the bottom of the frame....

Look up iwaxmyjimmy he has done this i believe? I don't know if he's on this forum or not..

As said above definitely some things to consider...

 

Gen right makes a tuck system but it's way more than any normal person would ever spend. You have to have their 4 link, gas tank, and flat skid.

 

And an Atlas. I called and asked how they clear the t case. Correct that you have to buy their $12k system. They don't even make it for a 2 door and I asked if they would sell the trans crossmember, they said no. Haha

 

So did you shove your trans up then? I know the motor mounts will flex, but I assumed there would be an issue moving the trans up (would at least cause a problem with my shifter)?

 

Wouldn't you also need to relocate the gas tank? At least on the JKU

 

That's a given. It's a rock anchor.

 

Yes i did its a damn tight fit but possible... Are you manual? Im auto with no problems yet, but i havent gone over 30 yet....
