Hello 👋, going to do a minimal lift for my 2021 Jeep rubicon to fit 37in tires before gas prices get expensive in the future. What’s the best approach to level the 2in lift with the mopar lift? What’s the minimum backspacing/offset do I need to fit 37in to prevent rubbing? I will off road as heavily as I can with that setup. (Looking into buying these wheelshttps://racelinewheels.com/collections/truck-suv/products/958b-rogue )My budget is 5k and for the mopar I’m getting the adjustable track bar and steering stabilizer shock. I don’t want to add the geometry correction brackets as I don’t want another point of failure. Let the comments and thoughts begin.

Are you set on the Mopar lift?

You can get an entry level lift from Clayton, MetalCloak, Evo, or Rock Krawler for about the same price as the Mopar lift. These kits come with adjustable arms and track bar(s).

I’m open to EVO, as long as it comes with shocks. Is Overland stage 2 with beilstein shocks good for the 37in lift?

The Overland stage 2 is a nice setup. But it does include control arm brackets and you mentioned not wanting those. You can do that same lift without the drop brackets for $260 less.

I have Bilstein 5100 shocks on mine. I like how they ride. They are a little firm, but too firm, at least for me.

Here is a fairly long thread about the actual lift height from the EVO 2.5" coils:

I have the metalcloak 3.5 gamechanger with the rocksport shocks. Tons of articulation on 37's.

not sure what your plans are as far as installation but if you’re close to me I can probably help out.

Hello đź‘‹, going to do a minimal lift for my 2021 Jeep rubicon to fit 37in tires before gas prices get expensive in the future.
If you are worried about high gas prices, how will a lift help? Maybe buying a car with that money will alleviate the fears.

That’s the plan after the lifespan of the engine
