I searched this thread and didn't find an answer.
So the rear track bar is the first contact under the bed for over sized spare tires. For thos that have gotten the triangulated 4 link, how much larger of a spare have y'all been able to fit under the bed? Hopefully a 38" spare.

During my install i found all of RK`s starting measurements to be spot on, front tires are centered and pinion angle is spot on although no measurements were given for the rear sway bar links. Hats off to RK for a well thought out lift, a lot of time and effort went into this lift.

For me the 3" lift is perfect for 37`s and not having to replace brake lines and front drive shaft, in time i will replace the rear brake lines as they are at their limit.

I did the lift myself and took my time, from start to finish in my work area and alone i figure 16 hrs. this includes setting up the control arms and front track bar which in itself take a couple of hours. The hardest part was torquing the nuts and bolts while the truck was on the ground the jam nuts i did on my work bench.

I was able to install my Milestar MT 37", it`s tight but fits with 30 psi of air. A true 38 would be pushing it.

finally got my kit installed! Can’t wait for the RK 5” springs but in the meantime this will have to do. I’m loving the stance. It’s quite a bit bigger then I thought it would be in height. It’s currently sitting 81” tall. Excited to get it dialed in. Great work as always @Rock Krawler Suspension

Here’s my details
Rock Krawler X factor arms, Pro X cradle, RK front Spring pads, steersmarts front Trackbar, EVO brakelines, Skyjacker 4.5” coils front 3” rear with 1” front spacers, 3” rear RK bumpstops 4” authentic hockey puck front bumpstops, :) evo rear swaybar links 14”, factory rear swaybar links used up front, Fox 4.5-6” shocks, rear limiting straps, carrier bearing spacers, ATX Slab wheels wrapped on Nitto TG 40s, synergy tierod on backorder, 5.13 gears on order, PSC Big bore and pump coming.

the install was really smooth and enjoyable. Going to weld in the cradle before I hit the trail.

Thank you. I ordered a white one as I’ve always owned them decided to try out owning a string and I’m glad I did. I love the color!

The color definitely grew on me. When I first saw it I was like...nahh. But after looking at it a bit it clicked.
How does your JT handle the 40s with stock axles? 4.10 gears?
Mine is getting a list of items
3.0" RockKrawler kit
Synergy tie rod, draglink, and track bar brace
EVO extended brakelines
etc...etc...
But was planning on just 37s as I don't want to regear right now...maybe 40s for my 2nd set of tires...LOL

Harold:

Do you have a link to the specific brake lines you are getting?

Do you think you need them for the 3" lift? Or do you just want a little more margin for error?

I got mine on yesterday evening: https://www.jeepgladiatorforum.com/...ter-driving-jtr-c-o-rock-krawler-et-al.26722/

Still waiting on the backordered Synergy HD Steering Kit & Front Track Bar and Sector Shaft Brace.

Even without that, it drives sweet compared to stock. Taking it out on the highway for the first time in a few.
