Well, I was sent the wrong lift kit.
This is an "almost installed" 2018 vintage, 2 door Wrangler Mopar lift kit.
Appears a dealership shipped the wrong Jeep crate. Working this out with the seller.
So this is a rollercoaster of a transaction, lmfao!
I am going to look into the MT Baja series a bit more, but with weight in mind, probably going to go K02. Just too sorted of a tire. I do recall them getting a bit noisy, but these are Jeeps not lincolns. Hardly a concern of mine. I just need 4 seasons and some rock crawling/mud, sand, roads...
Its tough to beat that K02 weight, 3 peaks, etc. I daily the gladiator so I need road manners. Not sure how the Baja Boss are on a daily.
Theres a great tire resource spreadsheet off the JL forums I have been using.
I do love these wildpeaks, but geez, heavy. Lol
I want to regear regardless.
I can go 37" BFG K02 for just 3.5lbs increase over my 33" Wildpeaks. A 37" wildpeak is 20 lbs heavier than the 33". Which is wild!!!
Mopar lift kit is here!!!
Figuring out what other components i should install at the same time.
Adjustable track bars, Rock Krawler spring correction isolators, and idk what else.
Tire/rim shopping.
Age old debate of 35's vs. 37's, lol
Leaning 37". Bfg K02, for the weight savings. If I can...
Took the Wife offroading for the first time. Had a surprise day off, so got her in the Jeep and headed on over to The Two Towers Loop in Jackson NJ. It only has 1 real obstacle, and we did the loop twice, so I could run different lines. Jeep did very well. Bashed off the skid plates some, even...
Im teraflex 1.5" level spacer, OEM wildpeaks, RR arcus bumper, Badlands Apex winch.
Manual trans, 15 mpg mostly highway. I can get 18 avg on long drives, sometimes a squeak more if I drive super boring and slow.
I'm with you, lol
Tuning would increase response, but there goes your warranty.
A hardware solution would change accelerator pedal to TB correlation. Also be more easily reversed.
I was looking into this a bit. Found a company that ports the OEM intake manifold and offers some OEM V8 TB conversion. Which by...
I think Iron Maiden every time 6's line up, lol
Well, I sent funds over to @TRVLR for his Mopar 2" lift kit.
So Im going Mopar for now, maybe bigger down the road, lol
Going to buy an ACT clutch instead of centerforce. @ACTman has been pretty active on here, and I would rather give them my...
