Changed the tire size with JSCAN and it was very simple. Not sure why people have so much trouble removing the connectors but it was easy and quick. I didn't notice much difference if at all with the bigger tires when accelerating. The wheels are pretty lightweight 25lbs and the tires are about...
Finally got them mounted! I kinda dig the stuffed look! Soon I'll get it leveled. Tomorrow, I'm going to try to hook up the bypass cable to change the tire size with the JSCAN app.
So Walmart canceled my appointment for Friday since the tires didn't arrive. Now it may take much longer to get wheels mounted since yesterday we were evacuated due to a large wildfire, Blue 2, south east of our property. So far the fire hasn't caused any damages to our house but that can change...
I have a half inch TF spacer that I thought I could stack on top of their 1.5", but I feel like too many moving parts or points of failure. On the Willys, I did the 1.5 TF and after the metal bumper and winch it looked almost the same pre spacers. Hence the reason I'm considering springs. There...
I get you but I really don't want to go beyond leveling. I don't do much offroading with the JTR, for that I have a Wrangler YJ decently spec'd. Going beyond 2 inches gets you to point where you will need control arms, shocks, rear links and the rear track bar in addition to the front track bar...
I want to go a different route this time when leveling my JTR. I did TF spacers on my previous Gladiator but this time I'm thinking about springs. My idea is to get the front Mopar springs and links that come with the full 2" lift kit, 2" bump stops, adjustable track bar and use JKS Geo brackets...
The color looks so much better in person than on their website. Less goldish. Love them! Hopefully I'll get them installed by the end of the week. Waiting on the 35" Trail Hogs to arrive.
I ordered a set of Schrader 29093 from Amazon. After reading about all the hit and misses with aftermarket ones, I decided to go with the ones that work. A little more but probably worth it. I totally forgot about Rock Auto.
Cool wheels! Are you able to change the color ring? I looked at 295s but the size increase from the Falken 33s was not big enough to justify the cost. 295s come to about 33.3" unmounted. 305s are much closer to 34" at 33.8". I ended up ordering 35x12.5R17 but really wanted pizza cutters. They...
No onboard air required. The Airlift 1000 has just one Schrader valve installed anywhere you want and you inflate to 5 psi when needed. That's how I did it.
https://a.co/d/48GWO3G It says it doesn't fit the Gladiator but Amazon is wrong.
Ended up ordering five 35x12.5R17 Kanati Trail Hogs for $194 ea. At Walmart. I had the Mud Hogs and those tires were surprisingly quiet for an MT and tracked straight.
For those interested, Walmart has the Trail Hogs on sale @ $194 for the 35x12.5R17. Just ordered five to go with the Rocktrix 116 I ordered two days ago. Can't wait to see them mounted. Now I have to order the TF leveling kit, extended links and track bar. I will stack the pucks with an extra...
Just ordered a set of these in bronze and +12 offset for my Sting Gray JTR. Now looking at tires. Want to stay very close in weight compared to the Rubicon granite wheels and the Falkens which come to about 87lbs. The wheels are 25lbs which are pretty lightweight for aftermarket. I'm in between...
