Thanks DUG for your expertise- Jeep lift!

2.5" Rubicon Express with some Billstein 5100 shocks.
Glad to have a Jeep addict in town!
Thanks again @DUG!

Kinda looks stock to me…

This was Before/stock height

I didn’t mean that in a bad way……totally dig the look. Nice and the American Flag behind the grill is hella cool !

 

[titanNV]

No offense taken at all man!

I like the stock look. I wish they made the stock wheels with the correct offset for bigger tires.

I did buy steel wheels with correct offset/backspace for bigger tires but won't put bigger tires on it until I do a regear.

Stock vs two weeks later.

Hence the step!

Hence the step!

Had to put in the steps so the wife would ride in it again. They are up armored and trail rated. They can take a beating. The door is ajar in the pic so it's down. I was trying to show a buddy how far they extend.

If Dug doesn't do regearing, see Dino at Scorpion Motorsports.

I can just swing my leg into my 1-1/2" lifted YJ with 31"s!

Too old to be monkey bar climbing anymore!

I feel your pain. At 69 years of age a 2 1/2 in lift on 33's is one hell of a step.
This is from start to finish.

My wife used to bar tend there, as well as the Cherry Patch Ranch and the Kingdom, back when they were all fine establishments owned by Joe Richards.

A good Friend of mine Jaynie worked the bar at Sherri's. I even stayed in the motel part there for a couple weeks when I was building cell sites in Armogosa.
We used to ride over the hump many times on the Brothel run.

Mine might need a lift here as soon as I burn through these 33’s.

Will probably just go to 35’s and not lift or just do a small 1” or 1.5” spacer to gain back what fender clearance the 35’s will take away. Would ‘get to’ keep factory everything at that point….
