I have no idea but from what Eddie posted
Notes:
• Recommended wheel backspacing 3.75” or less (smaller backspacing #)
• 2-Door JK: Front and Rear Aftermarket Driveshaft Required
• 4-Door JK: Front Aftermarket Driveshaft Required, Rear Recommended
you need the extra space to help clear the front coil over tower at a full flex. the amount of stuff you get with this kit is significant and a set of 12.50 wide tire or wider will rub them with anything more than 3.75". we are running atx slabs and they have 3.5" of back spacing and so we clear without any problems.

What kind of wheels did you get?
So to be clear, is it only the front that has a the clearance issue with the backspacing? I have new wheels with 4.75 (per the Method Wheel website). Only 3k miles on them so would hate to have to sell.
If so I could do the rear kit only for now. That seems to be what rides bad. My front works ok.

yes, the clearance issue is only with the front.

Kit looks awesome and after all of the pictures of RubiCAT, I think I've finally settled on a setup! :rock:
It looks like in the picture on EVO's website that the rear trackbar bracket is included with the rear kit... Can Eddie confirm? The kit looks much more complete than I expected (brackets and coilovers only)... Thanks EVO! :thumb:

i wasn't sure what all would come with the kits but, by the look of the press release, yes, it does come with one. i will try to confirm as much tomorrow.
you should be fine. i've run walkers with 1.5" spidertrax spacers and never had any problems.

I'd be very interested to find out if there is a base kit Evo would offer that would take you from a stock unlifted JK to their bolt on coil over configuration. Control arms etc.

I'm in a similar situation to you and given that this bolt-on kit comes with all of the basics (e.g. Sway Bar End Links, Brake Line Extensions, etc), here's what I'm planning to do...
-EVO Bolt-On Coilover Kit
-EVO Adventure Front Lower Control Arms (Short Arms)
-EVO Drag Link Flip Kit
-Front Drive Shaft
From the sounds of it, these items are the necessities... :twocents:
I just wish I had the money now... :thinking:
yup, that would be a great setup. :yup:
yup, that'll get you to where you really want to be in order to run this setup. :yup:
