Fifteen. Hundred. Dollars.

Those better be some damned good shock absorbers, because minus those shocks that kit is worth about $450.
Disagree.... If you get a good set of springs say Synergy or Rock Krawler it going to cost you $450


.... those shocks are probably $75-$100 a piece....other stuff another $200

Does anyone know if the lift kit plus larger wheels will be detrimental to the towing capacity of the Sport S max towing?

@PalmerJeepRoswell Can you tell me how long it took to do the lift? I want to get an idea to pass to my service department to get me a fair estimate on labor to install. Also, do you happen to know what the stock backspacing or offset was on those stock granite crystal rubicon wheels? Im considering the AEV Borah wheel with 37x12.50 but wonder if it'll rub anywhere with the AEV Borah +25MM offset. Let me know and thanks a lot!!

We charge 5.2 hours to install lift. That ends up being $624.00 plus cost of the lift. I do not know the factory offset. We installed 22x12 Hostile Rage wheels with a -44 offset on 37x13.50x22 Nitto Ridge Graps. It cleared everything except the rock rail. So we cut the rock rail 1 inch and hammered the end cap back in. It was rubbing on the front of the rock rail at the front tire.

+25 offset on 37s may require wheel spacers and cutting the rock rail.

I think there might be this info in another thread but I went over to Palmer Jeep in Roswell Ga yesterday since it’s right down the street from my office. David from sales met me in the lot in customary fashion. I told him I was looking for the gladiator that arrived the day before and was getting the lift and 37’s. He found out it was in the service bays getting finished and escorted me back. AWESOME! I arrived and there she was sitting on the new rubber. The tech spent some time telling me all about it. He’ done hundreds of Jeep lifts over the last few years (relitivy young guy). He said the kit was very good quality and straight forward. With the 37”s he said in off-road flex you would want the bumper wings removed. They also cut about 1” off the rock rail. I think if you had 35’s on the lift no mods or bumper removal. I wonder if 35’s without the lift might also need the clearance mods to accommodate off road flex. Also the tires were 13.5 so a little beefier stance. Looks really good.

Also Ryan is the parts mgr. he is “palmerjeeproswell” screen name. I think he said they still had about 12 of the kits left. If interested give him a pm or call. Great guys. Very helpful.

What wheels are those? That looks awesome.
Black Rhino Armory 20"
That's the same color as I have coming, (mine will have body colored roof) and I've got the same wheel but in 17" waiting for it.
