If I hadn't already re-geared I'd seriously consider going back to my modest 2" lift and 31's. I think I wheeled the most in that configuration more than my current setup.

Then all you would need is a heavy duty set of electric steps/sliders [emoji848]

I'm the one who deleted all the bickering back-and-forth posts with people ragging on each other.
Cut that shit out. This isn't Pirate, there's a difference between ribbing someone and being a straight up d**k.
Anyways, back on topic!

I haven’t checked the weight on their website but I would not be surprised if the pair weighed 80 pounds or more. I’m anxious to get them sold.

I'm anxious for them to be off your jeep, lol! Now, let's talk about those Bushcrappers!
I just might keep them and spay paint some glitter on them just because I know you can’t stand them [emoji23]

I like it, I think we are going to be seeing more and more TJ's returned to near stock height. Want a faster, more agile, stable, vibration free, perfect geometry, easy to get in... etc...etc... Jeep? Well, it left the factory pretty awesome, we just like to modify things. If mine wasn't a toy, I would probably go this route. The difference of going from a 33x12.50R15 mud tire on steel wheels to a 33x10.50R17 all terrain on aluminum was shocking.

We would really like a visit from you guys and I will take my chances with the slappin [emoji41]

Awesome! Maybe it’s the flares that throw my eyes off. Glad to hear you are enjoying it more.
OP
I think the flares are a bit overwhelming with my current setup. I felt they fit the look pretty good with the lift and 33’s but not so much now.
Before I removed the lift I always felt I had a good Jeep and as I have said, it worked very well crawling in the rocks. The rest of the time it bugged me, I knew it could ride much better and still be a capable off road rig. If I was 15 years younger or if it was only going to be used for off road activities I would have left the lift on.
It definitely puts a smile on my face now. I can’t wait to get it back to Moab. A spotter is going to be more important now.

Cindy is actually a very good spotter, so she'll have our backs brah! She prefers being outside of the jeep when things get sporty, lol!
OP
Rubicons also came with a 1” taller spring, you put “standard” height springs in it. The sport and below would have had 30” tires with the big tire package, 29’s standard.
I’m sure it doesn’t make a difference but that is why he said it looks stuffed.
I’d gladly let you drive my lifted TJ, with tuned Fox shocks, you’d be shocked how well it rides.
Incorrect. The TJ Rubicon ride height is the same as a regular TJ, taking into account the slightly larger tire.
That being said, a stock Rubicon will rub its tires bit at full articulation with the sway bar disconnected.
OP
This Rubicon spring discussion has gone around and around on this forum. When I decided to order springs I called our local Jeep dealer and contacted Rock Auto Summit and a couple other places and the oem part number was no different for any TJ.
