[Dono]

Lifted on the Mopar 2inch, with the stock tires.

Will update thread later with how it looks on Firestone Destination XTs - moving to 35"

I was planning a 2" mopar lift on my 2021 2dr Willys, if it is ever delivered. But, I am confused by various posts over whether I need other parts like a track bar or is the lift kit all I need? No rock climbing just driving around in Montana mountains on some rough roads at times. Thanks for any insight

Looks really good! Damn you for posting that. Now it gives me ideas

Not sure how this works but I just had a 2.5 lift on my 2020 Willys And looking for 37 inch on stock rims. Tire size is 255/75/17. I’ve read that some people put 37/12.5/17 on rubicon rims but they are wider? Or 315 70 17. Not sure how that would fit on such a small rim. I don’t want to add spacers or do any other mods. Mainly daily commute. Just want to be as high as I can. Any suggestions?

All factory Jeep wheels are the same 7.5" width. 37's can be a bit much for the non Rubicon axles, because the axle shafts are of a thinner diameter. Also, it could feel like a dog in daily driving because of the taller 3.45 axle gearing. Another also, is tire to frame/suspension clearance at full turn is more of an issue with the narrower axles.

I would recommend a C-rated 315/70-17. At most, you would need to adjust your steering stops out a bit to avoid rub at full turn.

Oh, and welcome to the community!

Just got my new Willys back this morning with a 2.5 lift. I went with C-rated 285-70-17, a 33" tire. Works great but certainly nothing like the 37"

I bet it looks great! You should have plenty of room, if you wanted to go with a set of 315's down the road.

Looks awesome! 33's on a 2 door looks like 35's on a 4 door. And great choice on the black top, fenders, and grill. IMHO, the bright colors look best with that contrast.

Don't do the 37's you will most likely rub. 315 70 17's are really good for the jeep.
