The one on the left JK has a 4" lift and mine has a 2" lift ..so close

I was thinking of swapping out to 37's and maybe a 1.5" spacer lift but not sure now

I'm pretty close to the JK 4" lift as it is
I personally think yours is good at the moment, but if you do upsize again, go with the 4 inch lift so it will look proportionate.

That's the purpose of the 1.5" coil spacers .....with the existing mopar lift
My 2" mopar lift gave me 3.5" already

The whole idea behind the spacers is more if a back up after installing the 37's ..meaning if they fit right with the lift I have ..then so be it
But if I feel the need to scale the Rig a bit so that the 37's aren't filling up the wheel wells then we add the spacers

Looks like the bases are covered then.

A stranger told me the other day that my Jeep was too clean, I need to off-road it and starting telling me about the locales with the biggest mud pits. I was polite and said, oh, it’s new, I haven’t had a chance yet, but what I wanted to say was, what makes you think I’d take my $40,000 (rounded up :cwl:) vehicle ANYWHERE your damn dumb ass would suggest? :cwl::cwl::cwl::cwl:
I get that all the time ...." you got her dirty yet ?" .." You gone off road yet ?" ..." My friend has a piece of land ya da ya da " .

I just tellm she's just too new yet but I will !!

I do my homework but always check with you guys too !!
Good. I knew a guy that had a stupidly high lift on his F-350, with big tires but not big enough for the lift.

Imagine Bigfoot with 37s instead of monster truck tires...

He thought it was the best thing since sliced bread. :facepalm:

Dan, as long as they make parts that can lift your Jeep higher and higher, if that’s what you want then the sky’s the limit! Just remember I you visit New York, legal overpass height is 13’-6” up here...:cwl:
Copy That ! :giggle:

" IF" I did it at all it would be the spacer lift and end it there . That picture shows very little difference than what I have now so parking next to the JK today may have just grounded me from moving forward !

Like I just told Ralph that picture of mine next to a 4" lifted JK kinda grounded me as to why go any higher ??
