Ok a few comments on this :
* I would def own one
* it would be hard to give it a girls name
* I wish the whole interior was tan and not just the seats
* def get one in granite crystal metallic
* Lift , tires , wheels a must
* open canvas over the bed ...or a Bimini top

Reading the threads in the technical section makes my brain bleed. Stuff like: " I just installed my 2.5" budget boost and new 35" tires and it rides like a lumber wagon, I want it to ride like it did stock...waaaaa" only to find out they are rockin load range E tires. Face palm ain't enough...rock to skull might be.

Chris: Just measured. 74” to the top of the “roll bar” top mount. No top on right now. So, hard top would add a few inches.? When we put the lift in, it added the advertised 2” lift, plus tire size increase of 2”. Make the general forums do the math. I’m off duty. :bandit:
OK...Say the hard top is 2" (I think it's ~1.5", but lets estimate).

74+2 = 76" = approximate height of Jrex.

Minus: 2" for lift, 1" for 2" larger tires (You put on 35s, right?) --> minus 3"

76-3 = 73" < 75" --> should be good!

X-factor - not sure if the suspension off of a 4dr is stiffer than a 2dr...might get a little more height out of that. I will also measure the current clearance when I get a chance again in two weeks.

Next weekend, I'll have an opportunity to park beside a stock 2dr Rubi (@obwahn's Wrikki ;) ). I'll compare there too.

Ah, school starts in 5 minutes, well don't want the kids to be late...

3 minutes later the tires are still burning out and the kids fly out of the back seat in front of the school, ready for the day.
