With the TF 1.5 kit, the upper shock mount moves up 1.5", if you don't raise the lower mount you are going past oem extension by the time you hit the new bump stop.
If you are going to do the #Teraflex 1.5" leveling kit, don't forget to add the #Teraflex 2" Shock Extension if you want to keep the shock travel closer to oem spec.
I added the Teraflex 2" front shock extension lower mounts too trying to keep the shock travel closer to spec.
A few other kits include the shock extension but TFX doesn't.
Has anyone who installed the Rugged Ridge Arcus also installed their OEM LED Rubicon Fog Lights ?
RR instructions say the oem JTR LED fogs do not fit / mount.
Any input as to if a fabricated adapter ring / mounting bracket would make theses fogs compatible?

Wife loves them, now I don't have to keep getting the folding plastic step out when we take the JT instead of our Navigator with OEM Power Steps.

Took around 4 weeks from ordering to delivery
Install took around 1.5 hours

They ride fine at 50# , Max on tire is 65#
Looks like the inside & outside shoulders aren't getting much road contact at this pressure, I am sure airing down would get full contact at the cost of fuel efficiency.
No rubbing except a tiny amount on the floppy plastic fender liner at full turn...
I saw a YouTube where you can remove the lower SBDM mounting bolt , rotate the motor upward and reinstall a longer bolt and nut in the lower hole on the SBDM for additional clearance and it moves the electrical connector to the top from the bottom OEM location.
I gave my son the OEM Falkens
These are Nitto Trail Grappler M/T 35x12.5 R 17
They measure out to 34" mounted on the JT
Also added the Teraflex 1.5" Front Leveling kit because I prefer the Level stance over the Raked look.
1st off , thanks for the quick and in depth reply.
I went straight to 35x12.5x17 nitto trail Grappler M/T since that's the biggest I could go without a lift and gears.
Just now getting to 1k miles and really checked rpm and shift with the Falken 33s and after the switch.
I used jscan to reset...
