Metalcloak 2.5” Game Changer with Rocksport Shocks

Method 704’s 17x8.5 w/ 4.75” Backspacing (0 offset)

BFG KO2’s 315/70/17 (XR Take-offs)

Tires felt a tad small when I first put them on, but I like all the room for up travel. I threw the wheels and tires on before I lifted it and put the tires into the fenders once with the stock suspension.

Running GY Duratracs, 35x12:50 or Fuel 9.5 in rims. The Duratracs are one of the best street and trail tires I have ever run. They are quiet, smooth running, work best at 32 psi on the street.

Got springs/shocks off a JLUR-XR, just need the other parts to do the install.. I have experienced not rubbing at all but have not hit the rock trails like Moab.

How does this ride? You like the setup? Would you get this lift if you started from scratch today? I am looking at Clayton or MetalCloak for my two door Rubicon.

I am 100% happy with my MC GC lift. On road and off. I would for sure get it again. I know several others that have MC and they are happy as well.

Thanks. It's a tough choice for me because I have a two door Rubicon and am not sure if I should go Clayton 1.5, 2.5, or MC 2.5. I feel like your's is a nice amount of lift and I would not want more with 35s. Looks great by the way.

Been wheeling my Jeep on 315 KO2s with stock Rubicon suspension. Moab, Michigan, Wisconsin.

check out my YouTube channel to see it in action lol 😂

Just watched this video, and I have a couple questions. Other than the wheels, what else did you add/do? How wide are those wheels? How does the spare fit? Did you have to do anything there?

I have a '24 2D Rubi XR and want the function and look of 35"'s. Would love to do it without breaking the bank.

I'm torn between wheeling stock until I feel I need to lift or doing something like 35s and a little lift now. Knowing that down the road I could be kicking myself.

Congrats on the new jeep :champagne:

1.5 is perf to me. If you think you may someday want to get 37” tires you can swap the 1.5 springs & stops for the 2.5” versions, depending on which shocks you go with. I have the other springs but, am happy with my 35s still. She’s just right tbh

I am debating between Clayton 1.5 or Clayton 2.5 with 35's. I have a new two door Rubicon. I really like your lift and vehicle stance and am wondering would mine be different? Any thoughts?
