What's the proper backspacing when purchasing new wheels for an LJ ? Looking at purchasing new 15' or 16' wheels with 33/10.5 tires Would like have the tires even with the stock fenders or out 1"
Morning, My LJ came with the 15 inch wheels. Been looking to get new rims and tires as these are worn and in rough shape. Found a set of 16x8 Moabs from a 04 TJ ( I think). Previous owner already put on a 3" lift. How big of a tire can I run with stock gearing, etc without causing any issues,...
Hello Hopefully,,we still have some people here to answer some question! ;) I am looking at getting a new set of tire for my LJ before next spring. My jeep is a 2005 6 speed manual, as of now, it still as the original 3,73 front D30 and rear track lock d44, but planing for a transplant...
Post up one side shot of your LJ with tire size and lift size and manufacturer. Mine (when I bought it): Rubicon Express 3.5 super flex kit with 1.25" JKS body lift. 35" KM2 - rode like it needed to have more weight on it. updated shot coming soon.
So, after a year with my 3.5" metalcloak progressive lift on my LJ, i realized the the rear coil were not up to the task with the load I carry around and during adventure travel. A lot of the extra weight come from my hd rear bumper and tire carrier with winch, 60" high lift, and some time two...
I am a new owner of an 05 LJ RUBI. It is currently bone stock. Looking to install a 32" tire and a 2 to 3" lift. Any recommendations? I prefer that the tire still fills up half of the wheel well area. I like the following look. Any suggestions on what size lift it is? Thanks guys!
I want to do a tummy tuck on 06lj. I am running 2.5 inch arb springs and some .75 pucks. I am looking ant the MORE engine lfit and teraflex belly up skid. Any of you guys done a tummy tuck without the slip yoke eliminator? Cheers!
So I have finally acquired an LJ... I'm much more familiar with leaf-sprung jeeps so I'm trying to wade through all the opinions and "true facts" out there in the forums. This jeep has 285/75/16's on it and they don't seem to particularly rub on any of my usual roads/trails. I read that a 33" tire...
can anyone recomend a longarm kit? Was gonna go with Rough Country, but would like a few more options. I'm sure there are probably a few I hadn't even thought of.
Hello everybody,new on the LJ forum was wondering are there any threads on lifts,just picked up a 06 ,also picked up a set of 35s,so wondering what is a good lift for the LJ,some back woods driving and street,thanks in advance
Finally got around to putting on the 1" body lift to "complete" the overall lift of my LJ to fit 315/75 Duratracs. Didn't take many pics of the process, it's not very complicated. One thing that had me worried, the instructions mentioned using both a 5/8 and 3/4" sockets to loosen/remove the...
My lift kit says to remove the front trans.skid for driveshaft clearance. Is this necessary on the LJ? Hate to leave the trans.pan exposed. I don't think mine looks like another one I saw onetime, are the Rubicons different? What are my options?
I'm planning on a 3" coil and 1" body mount lift. Do I need the 1" motor mount lift that I hear about? Are they just blocks or a new mount? I have to move the radiator anyway because I will be taking out the 2" body lift spacers that are already on it and associated radiator relocation hardware....
Ok, let's get this on.... Here's what I started with, our '05 LJ Rubicon. The only things I've done to it to this point are to swap on a Skid Row Nightcrawler bumper center section to mount the Ramsey winch that came off our old XJ before we sold it, added a Cobra CB and I just recently...
