It appears to be stock wheels did you install spacers? How much wider are the tires than stock KO2. Looks Great.
Don’t need spacers on it. Mine are 12.5 and no rubbing

Mine is 76.5, did they maybe accidentally put a 4” on mine or is that just inaccurate?
Exactly 76.5"? That's with 35s that actually measure what not mounted on Jeep? I have VERY little to work with to a steel header for my garages, but I'm only using 33.5" tires measured off vehicle, mounted and balanced, so if yours are true 35s, then I'll have 3/4" of clearance from my 76.5" garage height :please:

No spacers. Stock wheels. They fit perfectly. Here it is with the 2" lift. I just got it back from installation today!
They are wider, but I haven't measured.

It is going to be close for you, my antenna hit is going in. I could be at 77 at some point, Hard to get a perfect level measurement that tall in the center of the highest point you know?
Going to be really close for sure

Mopar 2" It gained 3" in front. 1" spacer might be enough for those looking to clear 35s. Aired down to 30psi after chalk test. Think I can still go to 28-29 the edges are still not coming clean on chalk test but it is setting of TPMS sensors. Need procal. Rides better now though after airing down. Not as smooth riding as stock but when going slow down dirt roads man it rides so smooth!

Did the two inch lift remove the rake?

No, but the JL doesn't have a rake like the JK, to begin with. It is the same as it felt on the stock suspension.

Will it fit in a standard garage door?
