Probably if they are going to really big 37" or more tires then they need more lift. And also although many don't do it bigger brakes, stronger axles and even lower gearing than the Rubi's 410. I have 315 /70/17's on mine with 4.5" backspacing and -6mm offset and the wheels fit fine. My primary use is as a road vehicle and am very happy with it. I am bordering on 21 mpg in every day country driving and it rides as good as it looks.

i understand that, and i'm never going boulder hopping. If thats what your into i would just buy the sport s , and replace the whole suspension and drive train with what you want.

...and i'm never going boulder hopping...

Good mornin' all. Talking of "boulder hopping" ...here is a small rock on the Rubicon trail many years ago with my first Jeep - a Willys CJ5. It had a 289 Ford engine with 5.38 gearing. Change of plans today. Was going to go geocaching up in the Red Rock Canyon area but because of my wife's shortened competition schedule I'm going to just lay around the pool. Nice to have options

No rush, just a gentle reminder. U prioritize the way you need to.

This could be Mt Hood, not sure. My phone camera is broken, so I had to take it with the selfie side! Lol. Not bad for a selfie!

As it happens, I believe we are all covered.

How long is that round trip?

Google say 6.5 hours one way but it takes us about 8 hours. We are getting old and gotta pee.

Im totally being selfish because im going to hopefully install my rock sliders on my one day home. But if i can get Jenns mom to bring it by
