Finally the wait is over. Wasted not time getting her lifted and 37's put on!

and it still even fits in the garage!

That looks great. Trying to do same on my jeep. Would you be able to take profile pics on how far tires protrude from fender flares, if they do? Would very much appreciate it.

I am considering the same tire/wheel combo for my 2-door JL. Where did you purchase your wheels from? Would you still do the same tire / wheel combo?

I got tires and wheels from Discount tire, i love the setup on and offroad. Very smooth ride and surprisingly quiet.

@Cypher I will tell you as much as I know about it.
This lift is a set of springs and shocks only, at this point and is still being tested and evaluated. It is a 3" front / 2" rear lift. It was designed and manufactured by Eibach Springs and they are using my Jeep to test fit and evaluate (R&D) the components. To my knowledge this is not available yet, but should be soon. They will also offer a 2"F / 1"R option, as well.

I am quite pleased with the ride and the performance, so far. The flexibility of the JL is pretty amazing and this lift just makes it better. We are working on the correct bump stop lengths now to keep those 38s from destroying my fenders.

Thank you for the compliment!

It's the shock travel that will probably end up ripping the front driveshaft boot, or make it a little short. I've ran Stock driveshafts on all of my JK's with 3.5-4" of lift, but ended up replacing them all when the front boot eventually ended up ripping and spraying grease everywhere when flexing offroad(Again, long travel shocks.) They were fine for several thousand miles on road, and flexing on the forklift, but on the trails they eventually failed(Not to a point where I couldn't drive home or anything.)

I'm currently running in "Mall Crawler" mode without a front driveshaft I'm testing a front driveshaft from one of the major vendors, but they are working on finishing the Axle side yoke for the D44. I already have the transfer case side on, and the driveshaft in hand, but didn't really want to put the stock parts back on unless I had an offroad trip planned. I was going to go wheeling this weekend with one of the local Jeep groups, but I just purchased my wife a JL and she wants to go to the beach and practice driving the 6spd doing minor offroading before we attempt to go Rock Crawling.

Anyway, here is a picture of how it sits with the Skyjacker setup

What size tires are you running?

Did you regear your axles or running the 4.10's ? I regeared my old JKU to 5.38 and loved it. Not sure how the 37's ride on it?

Installed Mopar lift last Saturday and got 37’s Monday.

Are those pro comp rockwell wheels?
