Great looing Jeeps everyone. Is a 255 70 R18 (32") considered stock on a sport/x? I think they are sahara (Bridgestone Dueller) take offs. I'm pretty sure I have the 18/59 springs and the black rubi take off shock.

How much of a gap is there between the stock fender and the top of the 35" tire? How long have you been running 35's or 37's on a Dana30?

The rubi shocks are red. The standard shocks are black.

I believe Sports are either 225/75/16 or 255/75/17's. 18's on Sahara's. Sorry I'm on phone. Did you buy yours with these already installed? I think some special editions came with black rubi shocks as well. Do not have 35's yet but hoping for soon.

The spare is the 225/75/16. I did buy it used with them already on. I am planning on going to a smaller wheel and either 33 or 35" tires when the current ones wear out.

This is with stock springs, trimmed fenders and 35"km2s.
Will take a new pic once 4dr Rubi springs are installed.

I can't wait to see the final product! I bought a lift kit designed for a 4 door for my 2 door. It was a 3.5" lift and I ended up getting a total of 5.25" out of the lift. With my 37s I ended up with over 7" ground clearance gain.

stupid question. I know the springs are different from a 2 door to a 4 door. But are the shocks any different from a JK Rubicon to a JKU rubicon?

I showed you the 18/60 springs when I had the 37s,

Now, same set up with 35s,

A little more breathing room. The front end has a 3/4 spacer to help level it out.

Here's a difference in the springs I swapped. Shorter ones were stock on my two door, longer ones came from a four door. So, if I remember correctly, I went from about a 14/56 to 18/60.

I gained nearly 2 inches on front.

And about 1 1/2 inches on the rear.

For now, while saving for an upgraded lift, it does the job. No issues yet. Rides nearly like stock.

Hope this helps brotha!
