Has anyone installed just the 1” pucks from the Terraflex kit on a Rubicon? I’m thinking they may be enough but don’t want to do the install twice. Any before / after or just after pics would be great as well. Looking to keep the stock tires/wheels for now.

Do your tires rub when you do full hard turns left/right? Did you also get longer sway bar links?

The tires on the Jeep are the stock ones All Terrains that came with the Jeep, the Wheels are slightly wider so pushed out the tire a tiny bit. No, rub and with the leveling kit it clears the 33" tires even better

I put in a puck when I added my bumper and winch. The extra weight lowered the fornt ~3/8 of and inch. The puck got me just above the original stance. I couldn't see and of the difference just eyeballing the change. I ran the stock 285s for 24,000 miles and then switched to Toyo AT 35/11.50r17 on stock wheels. I have never had any tire rub.

Thank you....I have to admit I didn't intend on the Granite Crystal but since all the Rubicon stuff is red I am really liking the color now
Below is a pic when I put camera in miniature mode kind of makes it look like a Hot Wheel :) but you get a better view of clearance on front

This is hilarious!. I was like his truck looks like a prop on a train set. ?
What is miniature mode?
Love the granite, I'm looking for some red decals to add some color to mine.
