Helps knowing which companies run big and which run small too. One brand that barely fits another will rub a little

This is the set up I have on the way for the time being except for the Rubicon springs which I might look into adding those to it. A lot of guys seem to be pretty happy with it.

I usually just check the manufacturers specs since that math will only get you a ball park size.

How long did it take your fox shocks to wear out? I've got some still in the box and I've been seeing a lot of posts about wearing out quickly and getting bouncy

I kinda had rhat in mind, getting a gladiator that can do more than I'll probably need. I was keeping in mind small lift, bigger tires, and bumpers ect. All of this has been really helpful. Also I have to say I absolutely love the old school look of your gladiator!

This where I'm thinking I'm going to be, between 2 and 3 inches with either 285s or 295s. Though the 315s looked really good.

I forgot word almost in there. The tires I have been looking at range from 12.6 to 12.8, I didn't think they'd fit on stock wheels without rubbing. I know lifting it is going to take some of the payload away but I'm looking for a happy medium. Good jeep looks but still a functional truck. I...

So what are the benefits of swapping out the front springs for Rubicon? Adding another inch? Also isn't a 315/70/17 13 inches wide? And they still fit?

Did you put spacers with the springs to get the 4.25? That's a good looking setup

Thats where I was thinking I wanted to be, around 3.5" with 35s. Not sure I wanna do 37s and need a regear though. Most of the towing or hauling I'll be doing won't use all of the max to abilities, but I don't want to give it up just for some good looks.

Absolutely love this look! How is the ride with the SST? I know the Silverado world I just came from everyone warns you to stay away readylift.. but that looks really good

I'd have to say I'm there on the only as much as I need and with 35s being the biggest I'd go if I even went that big.. I love the look of a 4.5 inch lift and 37s, but I chose the gladiator over the wrangler for the "truck stuff" for a reason.. I'm wanting to beef up the look without sacrificing...

I will head over there and check it out thank you! Thats kind of what I figured, but haven't found much on spring ratings besides skyjacker claiming dual rated. But I've still got plenty of time for the research. Maybe look more into spacer lifts?

Hey y'all.. new to the jeep world after just picking up a gladiator.. after being a life long silverado guy. I'm sure there's a thread for it, but I've spent so much time scrolling through forums trying to learn as much as I can about jeeps, I feel like I either haven't found the answers I'm...
