You can run 35" tires with a 2.5" coil spacer lift if you're on a budget but 3" will get the job done well and you can keep your wheels if you run 1.5" wheel spacers.



Nope, everything will be fine but you will NEED to calibrate your speedometer with something like an AEV procal or Superchips flashcal. I personally would recommend that you regear to a higher ratio like 4.88 and you will want to extend the rubber isolators on the tailgate so that they press firmly on the side wall of the spare to help prevent jiggling. Installing something like a bumper tire carrier or AEV tire carrier would be a better way to go as it would take the weight off the back of your Jeep and put it on the frame.



Any reason why you couldn't just install the lift? The cost of tools would be less than a shop would charge and you would learn a lot about your Jeep. I've got installation write-ups that will help you out too.



The BEST thing you can do is install new gears with a higher gear ratio. All the other stuff you mentioned is a waste of money.

You mentioned here about the procal or superchips........ is there any harm in not doing that?

If you have a 2011-up with an auto, you NEED to recalibrate your speedo after installing new gears or else you're Jeep will go into limp mode. On a 2007-10, your speedo being off will cause your shift points to be off as well on an auto.

No regear. Just a 3.5" lift with 35's.
