Thumbs up

For some of you guys that might be newbie's to the Jeep world, or just jeep lovers but may not know much about gear and lift kits, Full Traction has a reputaion of manufacturing great kits. From what I can tell, the arms that are out now look like they are heavy duty and extremely well made.

They've got my vote.

I'll second that for sure. I have the Full Traction 6" Long Arm Kit on my TJ and can tell you this is hands down the best suspension kit I have ever run or ridden on. Super beefy, amazing welds, beautiful finish and performs like no other. Need I say, their kit will be on my JK for sure

Default plans for my X

Since I'm new to modifying, what is reasonable in terms of body/suspension lift if I'm looking at getting an Unlimited X? I really like the look of the 32s on the Rubi, but don't plan on using it for all that it is intended, nor do I want to pay the extra for what I'll probably rarely use, hence the decision for the X, optioned out. (unless somebody smarter tells me otherwise).


I'd like to get 32s or at most 33s underneath. Will a basic 2" econo kit do the trick? Also, I'm opting for the 17" wheels, and would like to keep them, just get bigger tires; is that possible, too?

Thanks.

Hey luna95, welcome to JK-Forum and to the life called Jeeps

To answer your questions, yes, for your purposes, a basic 2" Econo Lift will give you the lift you need to run 33's and you should be able to keep your factory wheels without any problems. Having said that, if you think there's a remote chance of going bigger than 33's, you might want to consider going with a model that comes with a Dana 44 rear end. If your driveshaft doesn't blow first, your Dana 35 axle will.

Please let us know if you have any other questions

I thought I had modified my earlier post...sorry, but when I asked about the 2" lift, is that body lift, or suspension lift? I've tried a little research online, but am finding that the basics of lift are still missing for me. (i.e., the differences of what each type of lift does, and when you need to use it)

Anyway, as far as the Dana 35 goes, it was my understanding based on research, and looking at the spec sheet, that ALL Unlimiteds come with the 44 on the rear, assumingly due to the increased weight. What have you all heard? Also, won't having the 4.10 (edit: 4.10 b/c of the tow package...stock is different) help the driveshaft issues?

I stand corrected To be honest, I have only been looking at the 2-Doors and so my knowledge of 4-Doors had been limited
