I swapped mine. I went from about (forgot exact number) 14 front and 56 rear to 18 front and 60 rear. I gained approximately 2 inches in front and 1 1/2 inches in rear.
I also replaced stock shocks with the Rubi take offs. Pleased with the lift, but the ride is still stiff. It did the job for...
I tested the clearance on the front wheel well. This is not a leveling kit but close. They are coils and shocks off a 4 door Rubicon (18 front, 59 rear) with OEM bump stops. I also have a 3/4 inch coil spacer on the front and 1.5 inch wheel spacers. The tires do not rub (front or back)...
A very sincere thank you to Eddie, Cindy, Overlander and the entire group of helpers! You all were extremely helpful and worked hard to ensure us newbies had a great experience. Im guessing you all probably logged in at least 3 miles on foot helping and filming!
Thanks again. Here's a few pics.
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...
Gotta eat my words from my last post in January! Sold the 37s and bought some Mickey Thompson Baja Claws, 314/75R16. Kept the Pro Comp wheels.
Added the ORE hood decals and the Wayalife side decals.
Also replaced my stock spare tire carrier with an inexpensive Smittybilt tire carrier...
For anyone interested, I have 5, 37 inch tires I'd like to sell. They are currently on my rig but will be swapped out tomorrow.
The spare tire has not touched pavement. The other 4 still have decent tread left on them. The corners of the tread have been chunked in some areas as a result of the...
Seriously thinking about packing it up and moving to Texas in the next 12-18 months. About done with California. Looking at McKinney, Plano, Frisco area. Anyone familiar with these areas? Input? Thanks...
We always have a ways to go! I think we may have same springs, huh? Here is one more pic of side view. Not too much room on rubi springs with the shoes.
Please forgive me if there is a thread already posted on this. Did a search first and found a short one, not too much info though. I have an 08 2dr auto. I'm looking to get a tranny cooler in the next several days. The thread I found gave a favorable review on the BM cooler, but again, not too...
I put Rubicon springs and shocks on my 2 dr. I originally had 14/56 (or damn close). I replaced them with 18/60. I gained 2 inches on all fours. Since then i have stuffed 37s under the wheel wells. Need to upgrade to a coil lift in a few weeks and will be giving them away, including the shocks...
