If I’m understanding correctly you might want to have the rims and tires done afterword. I have a recon which has shorter Rock rails and also sits a little higher from factory. With that being said. If your ride is bone stock, you may rub more than a little. Just a precaution. [emoji112][emoji112]

Looking good. I have been debating on getting the AEV rear tire carrier as I have a HR Rubicon that works with that carrier. Just not sure if I like the offset to it. Do you notice it much?

It’s noticeable yes. You get used to it. I like the idea that when I go bigger it won’t cover the rear gate handle. [emoji106]

I was going to go with the AEV carrier to and at first thought how "weird" the offset looked then did some thinking about how old jeeps had a offset tire originally and the function factor of the access to the handle. Function over looks every time in my book ok don't get me wrong looks matter too. But I like the function they thought about here.

I like it because it’s quiet. I’ve had several over the years that were constant maintenance. [emoji106]

That's great to hear and one reason I wasn't thinking of. [emoji1303]

So...where has the time gone? Super busy at work then a last minute trip to Vermont. Nothing new as of yet. Hopefully will get some small things done this weekend. My wife is going back to the BVIs in the spring so I’ll wait until then to do the lift. Honestly won’t have time until then anyway.
When in doubt, throttle out.

Did you have your spare on the original tire carrier? Which tire were you running then...

After a very long wait the evo lift is finally on.
When in doubt, throttle out.
