2.5" lift springs. 1.5" spacer on the bumpstop which at rest not flexed gives me just over 4" uptravel between the bumpstop and bottoming pad. Noting that the tire is a certain distance outboard of the bumpstop that translates into 7" of uptravel top of tire to inner fender before the bumpstop...

2.5" lift springs rear. 3.5 front because I put a big winch on. Before and after. I have clearance now. It is sitting on the 1.5" extended bumpstop in rear flexed. No problems in front I know some don't agree. It is working for me.

thanks. A 37 would not fit flat so good thing Im stopping at 35's lol

2003 Sahara. Since I got 35's I wanted to move my tire inside rather than a new rear bumper with swing out or the additional weight on my tailgate hinges. My rear seat sits on a shelf of a rack I made to hold my top when its off ad I don't ever use it. I repurpose the stock carrier bolted to a...

My dog is going to have to ride in the front seat. Thats where she wants to be anyway lol

My original spare like yours along with the mount apparatus on the tailgate together weighed 60lbs My new Patagonia MT02 35x12.5-15 weighed 67lbs and a new alloy 15x8 wheel 14.6 so about 22lbs heavier. An extra 22lbs on the tailgate might not be too bad it just wont fit because the tire would...

At least it didn't stick on behind a bunch of Hells Angels..

I looked at it this morning and reslized its curved at the cab corner. I think before I buy aftermarket will look at the local salvage yard to see if there is sometging that looks close but is flat I can use off another vehicle.

I have seen a few threads on this. Making a way to attach it should not be difficult. My idea for the wiring is to repurpose the 3rd brakelight wiring and splicing the power wire into the right rear tailight and using the ground as is. That way when the tailgate is shut and the lights are on...

I have weighed each jeep on CAT scales full of gas without driver. I know the weight of my truck, the GVWR, the payload and rated to tow capacity. Whatever trailer I buy I will figure and consider the empty weight and payload and will figure out my pin weight with the combination of jeeps in the...

Its all about payload and pin weight with that one. I'm wanting to buy a 30ft lowstyle gooseneck with drive over fenders and a 2ft dovetail and stand up ramps. If my tow vehicle was a f350 instead of a f250 I would have more options on what trailer I could get. I have a 16ft trailer that...

The stiffer 3.5" springs in the front are keeping the tire out of the fender pretty good on our jeep trail where it gets flexed. The rear is stock springs with a 2.5" spacer lift and on the rock near my house we flex and check suspension clearance the 35" rear tire is getting crammed in the...

I went from 2.5" spacer lift to 3.5" lift springs up front because when I added a winch plate and winch the front sagged. I had to buy a adjustable track bar and longer quick disconnect swaybar links. I reused my shocks which is working fine. The new springs raised the front back up to where it...

Had belts seperate on one of my 33's (aged out) and went to 35's which I was planning to do when I replaced them

yes, thats the dealer price once it fails. It makes 10k for a brand new Ford 7.3 gas longblock installed look reasonable by comparison. The late model stuff is expensive refardless whether you go gas or diesel. I have had both.

Fuel system replacement on F250 powerstroke is about 17k and that's just the fuel system.

If all I needed to tow was my jeep on my trailer I would buy the Silverado 1500 with the duramax 3.0. Even without the max trailering package it will still have the payload for that kind of towing. That sticker above at 1783 payload minus the 800lb tongue weight still leaves 983lbs for 4...

My buddy has been looking at half tons for towing and like you said payload varies wildly. This is the payload sticker for a 2025 Silverado 1500 4wd CC short bed RST with the duramax 3.0 and max trailering package with the 3.73 gears. I looked at Dodge with hurricane 6 and Ford with ecoboost...

My 2 door tj sahara with 33x12.5, stock bumpers, winch plate and winch full of gas weighed 3840 on CAT scales my trailer weighs 1500 so 5340 together. Figure 15% tongue weight on a bumper pull thats 801 lbs tongue weight. Now look at your door sticker on tow vehicle that shows tire pressure. At...

My son didn't have any trouble with MT and lockers.
