Shop recommended the 1.5 using the Mopar lift and adding SB XRC Gen 2 bumper and winch. I questioned the 1.5, but I trust the guy that does it for a living.
Even with the 1.5 kit my front is still slightly lower than the rear. But there's probably 200 lbs hanging off the front of the truck. My bumper alone weighs 170 lbs I believe. It's 5mm thick steel.

Nice
So I finally got my green machine up in the air this week. Actually I got both JT's lifted this week. Wife is really happy with her Gator Overland too. Both JT's got a Mopar 2" and 1.5" Teraflex leveling kits, Core 4x4 tier 3 adjustable track bars front and rear. My Willys also got 35 12.50 17 Nitto Ridge Grapplers and a tazer mini. Some might find it interesting to know I mounted the tires on my stock wheels and had very slight rubbing on the right LCA at full lock. I took extra time to precisely center the axle and added 2 washers to each steering stop. Absolutely zero rubbing now.

Nice Jeeps! Obviously the "gladiator force" runs strong in your family!

Yep. I don't mind a little bit of rake. And I don't carry a ton in the back, but would like to get a trailer eventaully. I'd rather that level me out rather than make it sag.

What do ya think id those duelers in the other Jt? I absolutely love my 255/75/17 dueler ATs, but have wondered about the newer tread patter that you have. I believe they’re the revo or something like that.

That green jt is sweet looking!
When are they going to offer Mojito Green that might make me trade mine in. But guess I could just wrap it as cheaper option
