I made this chart because my garage height is limited too. I have the Maximus3 rack and I love it. I have their stinger and some internal light mounts and love them. I am considering lift and RTT as well. I added Maximus-3 and 37s to the chart.

Nice job with this. Very detailed!

I have some analysis to do. Thanks for sharing this data!

@Maximus-3
When will the kits be ready? Specifically, the 2.5" kit. Also, would you possibly be offering the control arm brackets before/without the full lift components and if so, when?

Thanks

We plan on selling both full kits AND components separately, options.
The kits and components will roll out early 2019. The 3.5" and 4.5" first and then 2.5" soon after. I estimate the 2.5" kits and components will be available by February or March 2019.

How important is it to correct the geometry in a 2.5" lift. I'm guessing "perfect" is better than slightly off. I'm asking b because I was leaning toward a 2.5" lift but when I saw the 3.5" you have with 37s I liked what I saw. I'm waffling

Hi @JeepGA

Correct geometry is very important at any ride height. We are hearing reports of death wobble from some of the kits on the market - some from as small as 2" of lift. Basically being "slightly off" can lead to some major problems. Unfortunately many JL owners are learning this lesson the hard way. Luckily Maximus-3 is here to provide a comprehensive solution with our geometrically superior lift kit.

Beauty is in the eye of the Jeep holder, You need to decide what you truly want from your Jeep.
My two cents: the 3.5" Geo-Lift with 37's looks prime and is GREAT for daily driving. IMHO anything smaller than 37's looks undersized on JLU's.

FYI: Maximus-3 is developing a 2.5" Geo-Lift Kit. I't may not need a high steer kit, but it will certainly correct all the suspension geometry.
Cheers.

Do you need a regional beta tester in the south? Let's keep it all bright white rubicon!

I'm going 3.5!

@Fire Burns, here are a few stance shots on level ground. Featuring our 3.5" geo-lift system with 37" tires. Still working on pricing. It will be competitive for this full solution.

I really wish I could stop looking at this. That's my jeep...minus a bunch of things

Just a little follow up here for those that are following the Geo-Lift and Maximus-3. I had the honor and privilege to spend time with Joe, Matt, and the Maximus-3 team this afternoon. What a great start to the week!

First of all, they were gracious enough to give their time and show me around and talk about some things they are working on. These guys are great-true professionals and love what they do.

I got to inspect the Geo-Lift in person, both on their JL and in the shop. If you think the pictures are impressive, wait until you see how tough and how much thoughtful craftsmanship has been put into it. I have seen a lot of lifts and this is truly one of the impressive suspension systems I have seen built for any Jeep.

Joe was also kind enough to let me drive the JL, and wow. It actually took me a while to really be able to describe all the subtle enhancements I was experiencing. The Jeep is so impressive in how it handles and it’s in large part due to the lift. It tracks well, has super tight and responsive steering, and even on the sometimes rough Motor City roadways it drives better than stock with no bump steer. Even with wide and heavy 37” tires which on many Jeeps will pull you one way or the other, the JL was tame and predictable with excellent feedback. The JL should come like this from the factory. Amazing engineering!

Well done guys and thank you again for taking time with me. Keep up the great work and can’t wait to see what else you have working this year!
