See now youโ€™re starting to think no spacer kits just straight to 3 1/2 ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜†๐Ÿ˜

Just keep in mind for pictures not every 2 1/2 inch kit and every 3 1/2 inch kit are equal. Some 2 1/2 will be taller some three and half will be shorter some 3 1/2 will be taller.

Especially on the front visualization sport fenders are different animals than Rubicon Mojito fenders and of course aftermarket.

Some more overland lift kits will have higher rear end and more accurate front ends For rake and payload handling

Thanks for the extra photos fellas. How many inches are you getting from the top of the frint and back tire to the bottom of the fender? Additionally, how mu are you seeing from the diff to the floor?

Thanks in advance!

I have a Mojave and am looking at lifts. I am currently running 35's and want to see what it might look like with a the additional height.

I did see some old posts and there was only one decent photo. Hope to see more. Share em if you got em.

Thanks in advance!

I'm originally from Connecticut so Clayton was a logical but also an amazing choice. I chose the Clayton 3.5 withon 35 KM02's. Being retired law enforcement I chose the KMC Dirty Harry wheels. Looks like the barrenl of my first service weapon....357 Magnum. I used BultRight Industries molle panels in the bed and a DiamondBack Cover. More photos to follow

I am finishing an overland build with max wheel travel. I have a 6 speed manual, or what I refer to as the millennial anti-theft device...or for that matter, what less than 10% of all drivers know how to drive. BTW my wrangler is a 6 speed as well!

35's IMHO are lighter, Just as capable under the right suspension and bridges the gap between rock crawler and overlander and every day drive.r.

BTW my wranger has been in all lover 48 states and most of them on my procomp tires. I've had Duratracs as well but so far the BFG's are amazing. With only 3000 miles on my Glad i can report zero road noise with top down and doors off. Can't say that about any other tire.

Do you, do your own build, have fun...learn, admire and know you are an elite group!

BTW. Dont duck me! For all of you who line the ducks up on your dash...You don't Jeep! Just my observation and opinon. Duck on!

I like the wheels. We're you issued a S&W? I am a fan of wheel guns. I have a custom bull barrel 586 from Clarke Custom guns. I also have Schofield in 44 WCF (44-40)

Cheers

Before and after. Just went wheeling with the new setup today. It made my standard trail a cake walk.

FYI this is the JKS 3" Lift kit, which actually levels the truck. I added a 1.38" rear coil spacer to put the rake back in, and Sumo Bump Stops in the back to help carry weight when the truck is loaded. Tires are Nitto Recon Grapplers 35".

(Also shocks are loaners, back ordered on the Fox 2.5 IFP Performance.)

This was my thought process as well. I wanted something that would be a super capable "compromise".

If you want a rock crawler, a gladiator is not the premium choice. It will do it (a bit), but will always be problematic until you essentially rebuild your entire rig from the bottom up.
