How do you like the lift with the falcons in general? I’m looking for a new a new lift and was considering the Teraflex ST2 but am constantly hearing how stiff they are, even their new SP line has the same reviews.It was part of the Maximus-3 Geo 2.5 lift
There is really no set lift height that dictates the need for adjustable control arms. It will depend on your caster/pinion angle and axle centering in the wheel well needs. I personally got front and rear upper and lower adjustable control arms prior to my lift because I’ve seen so many lifted JL’s with the rear axle moved to far forward for my liking. However, after lifting 3.5” my rear axles didn’t shift forward which goes to show you that every Jeep is different, each and every one is really different!! As far as what brand, that comes down to personal preference, you can play pin the tail on the donkey with all the major players and you can’t go wrong. I personally like a pinch bolt style versus a jam nut style and I’m partial to Teraflex but they are on the pricey side.Thanks for the info. what size lift should you change to adjustable control arms and what brand do you recommend?
I have to agree with Peters post #2216.Thanks for the info. what size lift should you change to adjustable control arms and what brand do you recommend?

I've owned dozens of cars in my 50 years (2nd Wrangler), and this one tops the favs list for sure. LOVE IT!

Are those 37’s or 35’s? And how much of a lift do you haveJust finished putting on the Power Steps.
This is awesome. Thank you so much for posting this. I have ordered the sting gray rubicon and want to put35’s on. Thanks for posting all picturesTop 35" KM3s no lift
Middle 35" KM3s w/ Mopar Lift
Bottom 37" KM3s w/ Mopar Lift
Get 37’s my friend or you will regret it and pay twice like most of us that got 35’s did to begin with. If you insist on 35’s I have 5 almost new 35” Ridge Grappler’s for sale, two months old lol. Pay once and get 37’s or pay twice and get them in a couple of months, regardless, you’ll end up with 37’s, trust me!!This is awesome. Thank you so much for posting this. I have ordered the sting gray rubicon and want to put35’s on. Thanks for posting all pictures
Thanks so much for all the pics. Looks amazing. Had a jk Sahara with a 3.5 aev lift and 35’s and thought I could get away with the 2.5 and the 35’s on my new rubicon ...but pics say noOn a side note, rings or no rigs, both are with 37’s. I feel like the rings make them look smaller. Funny story my wife says your tires look huge, what did you do to them? I said nothing sweetie, I just took off the rings and it makes them look bigger. I put the rings back on a said, see they look small again, she said yeah they do thoughts?
Unfortunately not my friend, I don’t want to see you make the same mistake I and so many others before me have made!!Thanks so much for all the pics. Looks amazing.
