Contemplating the same lift and tires. Questions: Do the 32x11.50x15 tires fit under the fenders? After the lift, do you have any rubbing at full turn radius?

Also, what the measurement from the ground to the bottom of the door?

Thanks from neighbor to your south!

The 32’s fit great. No rubbing at full turn, i just need to set my bump stops so they don’t rub on fenders at full articulation.
Also the 32’s from BFG measure a bit under 32”, as most BFG K02’s run undersize. But in my opinion they fit that size lift perfectly.
I’ll go out tomorrow and measure the door height for you

I’ve got the savvy BL and MML and shifter cable linkage waiting for me to install… But in the mean time i did a comfort upgrade

I’ve been wanting bartacts for a long while, but couldn’t justify the 350$ price tag quite yet. But i found a pair pop up on marketplace for 200$ mounted on a 03-06 seats in the exact color way i want. Decided it was worth a shot to offer 100$ and the next day i picked them up! The seat covers fit amazing and i wanted to try out some 03-06 seats anyway as i’ve heard they’re more comfy

I then sold my old ones for 80$, making it only 20$ to get new seats and covers.

Pretty good upgrade!

(They look splotchy because they’re still drying after i washed them)

Picked up a free stock bumper since i was getting tired of the aftermarket look. I’m going to run no winch for right now while i decide if i prefer a stock bumper…

Cut it down to a stubby

I’m gonna paint it with some flat black but for now it’s done..

Anyone have a preference? Does it look better simple or aftermarket?

way better now. I recently made a stubby out of my stock front and love the look.

That looks a lot cleaner

Lighter is better. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003CGEQ5E/?tag=wranglerorg-20

I agree. Would love to get a savvy aluminum but this will do for the moment. Thanks for the link.

nope, but ultimately that is planned. I was thinking of using the UCF aluminum winch plate.

Yours looks quite a bit better than mine! I plan on welding the ends eventually

This reminds me if any ones got some spare OEM recovery hooks for the front bumper i’ll take them

Another vote for the stubby stock version.

Thx. I just used the Mopar plastic caps but I did weld all the holes in the face of it to make it cleaner looking.

So you just made sure to cut the end to the same angle as it was stock?
