2.5" in the front, .75" in the rear. I have a small riser on the back of the motorhome. All depends on the combination. For example, a Fleetwood Bounder's 2" hitch is about 4-6" higher than mine.
I previously had Teraflex 1.5" front, Daystar .75" rear and 35's. I went to 37's and bumped the front to an RC 2.5" spacer lift with Mopar lift control arms. Not sure I needed to, I just did. Plenty of clearance up front, but it doesn't look like it would take much to rip out the rear fender...
Winterizing the RV at the end of the month. It has been a great summer.
No weird or excessive tire wear from flat towing. No cross country trips, but many many trips to the mountains and down to the Oregon Coast. We can't wait for next year.
We have flat towed our Gladiator 2 camping seasons behind a V10 powered class A without any problems. We have also flat towed 2 other previous Wranglers. We started our flat towing adventures years ago with a 2006 E450 that looks very much like yours.
Supplemental braking is a must, IMO. I also...
2020 JTR
4.10 gears
37x12.5x17
2.5" lift
Speedo/tire size corrected with Tazer mini
16mpg average. 50/50 in town/hiway
Better than my previous 2 Jeeps: 04 TJ and 16 JK.
If you are asking me... no, not factory wheels. They just look similar. 17x9 Quadratec Rubicon Extreme wheels. I had 35's on the stock wheels and they rubbed the control arms.
I think clearance between your front tires and fenders would be pretty tight with 35's. Performance would definitely take a hit with 3.73 gears.
My buddy's hydro blue Max Tow has 35's. We put on a Teraflex 1.5" level kit to get a little more clearance for the bigger tires up front.
Fitting between the track bar and receiver hitch is one thing, fitting between the frame rails is another.
My 37" Mastercraft MXT fit between the track bar and hitch, but hangs very low because it will not fit between the frame rails. I remove it and throw it in the bed when off road.
I am...
For me #1 has to be the flat tow set up for towing the Jeep behind the motorhome.
Of all the things I have done/added over the last year, none of them would of mattered if the Jeep had to stay home while we were travelling. Maximus-3 tow loops, Blue Ox Avail 10,000# tow bar, Cooltech light...
At least I know what beer smells like!
I had a vehicle detailed in and out once. It wasn't a Jeep. The dumbasses soaked the whole interior. It took forever to dry out and never did smell right after that.
Maybe it was just the company I hired. But after that, interior cleaning was all me on...
