The JLs seem to be holding up well with 37s

Have they made the axle tubes thicker on the JL’s? If so, good to know.

Yes sir! I’m not sure I’m gonna be able to wait until it all gets in!
Thank you!! I hope so!
Yes sir!! So excited!
Like Jerry said below, the JL axles are handling 37s great. Lots of people have been able to run them for years without any issues.
Thanks man. It all started with Rockhard4x4’s generosity. Then giving me those rock sliders started it all!
[emoji1303] I couldn’t be the smallest at our house
now we will all be on 37s! So this info could be wrong, but here’s what I found
The axle tube diameter went from 2.5" to 2.75" and the brackets are upgraded from .120" up to .200".
Maybe that’s right.. maybe not!
Yes sir!! Can’t wait!
I can’t wait!!! I may not be able to wait until all of it comes in!
Yes sir!! I may need to move up into the medium group for EAST meets WEST

The Rancho 2” Sport Lift is in!
Remi is filled up with parts ready for install this weekend. Rockhard4x4’s packaging was so beefy, it wouldn’t fit in the Jeep. I had to remove the sliders before loading them up!
Bumper, sway bar disconnect skid plate, winch hoop, Warn EVO winch, and rock sliders will be installed this weekend!
Still waiting on the Synergy Chromoly HD Tie Rod, Rockhard4x4 FAD Skid, Synergy Steering Stabilizer relocation bracket, and of course, the 37” Nittos and beadlocks!

A sad(but excited) Remi all torn down
Still currently working on the final product, but I just wanted to stop and take a moment and say... F&,’&k JLU BODY MOUNT BOLTS!

Picture time [emoji4]
First impressions:
EXTREMELY impressed with RockHard4x4’s quality, craftsmanship, and just how darn sturdy these things are. They are incredibly solid! Every piece of hardware included with them is top quality, and engineering perfectly. The under bumper sway bar motor skid plate is possibly the heaviest piece of metal I’ve ever lifted. That sucker is ready to get hit.
WARN VR: I’m super impressed with this winch. Quality is incredible, lifetime warranty, and wireless remote. I can’t wait to get this thing out and test it out. For $749, this is a great winch in my opinion.
Rock sliders: BEEFY AS HELL. Like the other Rockhard4x4 parts, these are beefy and strong. They use three mounting points(body mounts, tub bolts, pinch seam bolts) They feel sturdy as a step and feel as though they could take a good hit from a rock. I feel very grateful as the contest winner, because I have discovered my new favorite Jeep armor. Thanks Rockhard4x4!
Install wasn’t too bad. The only thing I have to say again is F$*k JLU body mount bolts. They are an extreme pain in the ass. Everything else went on without an issue!
