Someone’s not using their SawyBar disconnect.. :giggle:

(edit, on closer look, maybe they are actually, just super torqued front/back on opposing grades, and then up real high in the wheelwell)

:jk:

How much clearance is left under that fender for a 35?
Yeah, exactly, that why I re-edited it, and then enhanced the edit.

At first it just looked odd, but likely not much more more blood to get off that stone.

Right, but apart from the swaybar, some people are saying that the stock Rubicon can fit 35's without a lift. But I don't see much extra room underneath there in that picture.

Well, fender clearance seems fine, it’ll be the body that rubs at full articulation like that as the wheel turns in on itself.

Even stock KMs on the Rubicon JK(U) will rub at full articulation, heck they used to rub the airdam on mine during flat ground tight turns sometimes.

If anyone gets a picture of a black JLU (ideally sport) with a soft top, please post!

Looks like the tire carrier changes to body color maybe based upon the fenders? Or maybe just with a certain trim.

Also do they have a snorkel on the front jeep in the bottom photo?
Yea definitely looks like a snorkel on that leading camera car. :rock:
