    Install of spring lift same labor as BB / spring spacer install?

    If you are there, doing the same work, why limit your suspension travel? Spacer lift will keep the travel the same, but give you more clearance... sprigs will both give you more travel, and more clearance.

    CB radio locations

    I don’t use CB, GMRS is all we use out here… in the TJ I just use a UV-5R as radio. I just use a bracket mounted to instrument bezel. I have a 12 battery adaptor, and a handheld mic/speaker for it.

    Pulls on acceleration and dives back other direction when let off on acceleration

    That Fox stabilizer has been known to cause a push, you could try a quick drive with it out to see if the push remains. After going through a pull/push scenario a couple months ago with mine, make sure the toe is set properly, and that the steering is perfectly centered. Mine had the steering...

    What lift for 33s?

    I have the 2 inch JKS kit. Netted close to 3 " in front, and 2.5 rear, and put 1.25 body lift. My 33x12.5x15's clear, and have plenty of space. Nice thing about the JKS, is you don't need to add extra parts like sway bad disconnects and adjustable track bars. The other thing we did, was to...

    Mickey Thompson Tire Comparison

    I have 35x12.5x17 MT BB MTs on my JT, and they have been great, other than the noise. 5 tire rotation, and I am at about 45k miles on the set, and will need to replace before my trip out west this summer. The BBs did not do too very well on the snow/ice we had for the week here... Than said...

    Anyone running a 2 1/2" lift with 33 in tires? Pics / Opinions wanted!

    ^This. Before I did the lift, I installed all new control arms, and steering. The Trackbar, sway bar links, and shocks I knew were in the JKS kit, so I just used the Kit parts.

    Anyone running a 2 1/2" lift with 33 in tires? Pics / Opinions wanted!

    Between the 33x12.5x15, and the 15x8/3.5"BS I wish I had wide flares... that pic of mine is just from driving down my gravel driveway after rain... It really only looks like you gained 2 inches out of your 3"... I have WAY more gap above my tires...

    Cerakote ruined my trim finish. What happened and how can I fix it?

    You might be able to use some 100% isopropyl and a white (or a well used green) scotch Brite pad and clean it off... but you need to apply it in shade, after fully degreasing and making sure it is 100% dry. Any grease, or other product, or water will cause it to streak.
