Hey Jeeple,
This is my first thread, I just bought my new JL Sport 2 door. I owned a TJ Sport before and fell in love with its capability and the community. On my old jeep there was a wide range of aftermarket support and years of experience from the rest of the community, I know the JL model is a brand new platform and I know nothing about it. So all help and insight is greatly appreciated

Thinking about putting on the RC 2.5" Spacer Lift if I can put on 35's. Can I put on 35's without re-gearing? Im running a stock 3.45 gear ratio. Also will 16" rims fit the JL without clearance issues?

Wheels are 17x9 and minus 6 offset.
There was a fitment issue with the 5th tire fitting on the spare tire carrier. I went to autozone and bought a 1/2 inch wheel spacer and it fits fine now. As for the weight on the stock carrier, I figured that it wouldnt be an issue for now because the tire sits on the rear bumper

Headed to Downieville next week. Looking forward to some 4x4 trails.
Just picked up some Quicker Disconnects from JKS. Super easy install and didnt take long

Love 2 doors. Miss my JKR sometimes! Did you cut off the bracket for the passenger side JKS link? Instructions say to cut off the sway bar bracket and use the trackbar bracket right?

Yup sir. The stock sway link on the passenger side mounted in between the two brackets. I just had to remove the bottom mount closest to the wheel. I used a metal blade on a sawz all and it actually came off pretty cleanly.

Haven't posted in a while, here are a few updates.

Installed DV8 windshield lightbar brackets, 50" Raxiom Light Bar Flood and Spot Combo, pick up an EAG stubby front bumper.
