My 37s look smaller every day with my Clayton 2.5" diesel lift
Same tires look better on the wife's Mojave with a 2" spacer lift. Her stock wheels work just fine but the Mojave wheels have less backspacing than stock Rubicon.
Unnecessary height is definitely a negative but wtf are you gonna do with 2" of uptravel? You will be riding on the bumpstops constantly and they will be trying to push you over while crawling.
I tried running 3.5" of uptravel on my rear ORIs and it was terrible offroad at speed. Constantly...
Check out Revolution Gear. They are made in the US except for their economy line of axle shafts. They used to be affiliated with Superior gear before they went under.
I used a set to regear a Dana 30 and they set up well.
Yup. After experiencing it in the wife's Movaje that was a stipulation for my JTRD. Nothing like a chilly fall drive through the mountains with the windows down and toasty hands
What size wheels are you guys planning to run them on? They recommend 9-11.5"
Ive run a skinnier wheel than recommended several times and never had any issues.
My tires are only a couple months old but I ordered anyway. I think my 0 offset wheels will handle the extra width just fine. Anyone know the weight on these offhand?
Edit: Oof 82.8 lbs
Ordered from Northridge but im pretty aure the AEV stuff was drop shipped directly from them. Id say it was under a week.
The ride is as awesome as it was before the spacer kit. I haven't gotten around to installing the geo correction brackets on the Mojave yet though.
I had planned on the load C but I wasnt paying attention when my local store was price matching. They actually already had a better price than Northridge but I ended up with load D. I'm glad I did since I tow a dump trailer and tend to overload my bed. The diesel doesnt seem to mind the extra...
Im wrapping up a custom cage and Motobilt back half on my YJ. Shit was definitely not perfect back in the 80s and its even more crooked after a couple of flops and ramming into tons of rocks. I'm sure they still leave some relatively wide body alignment tolerances these days.
If youre worried...
Leave your ratio as it actually is. You will probably have to adjust the tire size until you are spot on with GPS.
Yes, the transmission shift points will change based on the tire size that is entered.
I was looking at the receipt from the shop and it shows a JL PCM for almost $3k. Maybe they just slapped in a pre-tuned PCM? They're only about $400 new.
