curious why you recommend sway bar end links for the 2.5” lift? Any particular brand? Aside from these I have all exact parts on my JLUR with dynatrac kit and the jeep ride like a dream on and off road.
Congrats on the JL purchase....I got mine (first Jeep) last November. Its been somewhat of a life changing experience (in a good way) and mods are a huge part of it.
Is your JLUR coming with the AT (KO2) or MT (WIldpeak) tires? For your intended purpose I would definitely recommend a AT tire...
I put on 35" (K02) on the stock wheels on my JLUR and drove for a while with zero rubbing. So I would say if all you want is 35" just go for it. Lift (either through spacers or full kit) would only be needed if you want to gain additional ground clearance or improve suspension performance...
Interesting to read about some of you saying Dynatrac is too soft. I have this setup and I find it perfect. The ride is compliant, smooth and doesn't sway at all on pavement like the stock setup did at slow speeds. Cornering has improved also as there is significantly less body roll. Where...
Finished installing the winch tonight. A few notes for others contemplating the same setup:
- Maximum-3 plate: well make overall but I had to grind it down a bit as the stock welds on the frame were interfering with the proper bolt hole alignment. I feel they should allow for more clearance...
I got all 3 afterwards. Got the lift first and drove it for a while without. It drove fine. Very well actually but I wanted to see how much better the steering/handling could be so I got the other parts. Before the track bar and relo bracket the axles shifted about 1/2" to each side. Now...
thanks! The LOD Destroyer install was fine. I did it by myself in our garage with a little bit of help from my 8 yr old son. I didn't have to loosen the frame bolts the slider just slid over them (I did use a mallet on one side to help them a bit.) The hardest thing is dealing with the...
Just checked out your built. Very nice. How did the winch install go? Which plate did you go with? I just ordered Smittybilt X20 along with the Maximus-3 plate. Hope to install it next week!
So I am taking an Off-Road Vehicle Recovery class in March., which means I should start thinking about getting a winch. Currently between WARN EVO VR 10-s or Smittybilt X2O GEN2. I was initially set on the Warn but I am not liking the cable fitment issues others are reporting (cables seem to...
Thanks....I agree. I also got over the hype. I also figured Bronco will be here for a ling time. Lets see how it does after the 1st year etc and I can always get one later if I want. But the Jeep modding thing has been soo much fun. I know it will be a while till after market catches up with...
