just had them installed last week; on back order for a while. Evo specifies King shocks 2.5-5” for their 2.5” lift kit. Considering the lift gave more than 2.5”, I would go with the 3.5”-4” from Fox. I also didn’t have to change out the driveshafts.
New on the JTR:
- Synergy: HD steering linkage, steering stabilizer relocation, track bar, sector shaft brace
- King shocks Evo-tuned (previously installed 2.5” Evo lift)
- Rugged Ridge AmFib low mount snorkel
Going with the Evo-spec Kings. I don't know the compressed/extended lengths. No need at this time for me to change the driveshaft but I think I'll end up doing it down the road. From what I've heard with my setup it might just be a matter of time.
Just my King shocks, King steering stabilizer, aaaaand the Rugged Ridge snorkel that’s been on backorder for a while on Quadratec (placed the order in November and patiently waiting).
it's 2.5" springs front and rear. No spacers. Still a slight rake. Rear is still about 1" higher than the front when measured between the front of the sidestep vs the rear of the sidestep. I do have a 0.75" spacer and i'm considering putting it on, but not in a rush.
will the “fits” list work with the steel spare wheel? Moving up to 37s. Thinking the K02 or KM2. Tires going on are KM3s, not sure if anyone has had success getting those on. But also considering K02 to save some $$.
thanks for sending side pics! I'm confident I'm going to be happy performance-wise, I guess I was just a little more worried that my 35s would look small. Considering that my Good Year Kevlars are measuring 35" exactly on pavement I'm pretty sure it's going to look fine. thanks again.

I have regular rubi fenders and I’m worried my 35s might look small if I go with this lift. I have good year kevlars and I’m not really interested in going to 37s. I wish there were more shots of those that went with the 2.5” Evo and have 35s
