Default 35's on 2inch lift?

I am curious what this would look like, would there be a great deal of rubbing, and how tall would she be with this set up? Anyone have pics??

I have adapters on my jk to 5 on 4.5 and have the FT 2 in lift . My YJ has 35's on it and I have been meaning to try them. Just looking at them they do not look like they will fit. When I get a chance I will try them and take some pictures.

It will rub if you flex it at all. I have 2.5 springs with a 3/4 spacer up front and get a little rubbing at full flex.

I have a 2 door X with a 2" FT BB and 35x12.5 BFG's. With the front sway bar diconnected at full flex the tires just barely rub the inside edge of the fenders. I'm also running 15x8 Cragar soft 8's with 4" of backspacing. Although it hasn't been enough to bother me yet, I would say that another 1" of lift wouldn't hurt it.

Guess I'll have to stick to 33's and 2 inch lift. I have height issues (not me the jeep....lol) and I need to clear 6'4" underground. From what I hear a 3" lift and 35's = around 6' 4.5".....not good. Anyone know the height of a 2" and 33's??

Default bump stops

i cant harp from experience yet but having 315's and a 2.5"bb sitting waiting to be installed, i hope rubbing will be at a minimum. The true solution weather your on the cheap or you refuse to lift it any higher is to increase the bumpstop height to keep the tires off the sheetmetal or trim but being a new vehicle thats not a real option yet. coming from the cherokee world the sawzall and angle grinder were my best friends.

I would get a 2.5 Suspension lift and a 1" body lift as well.

Get some wide tires and then get wheel spacers.
