35s on a stock Willys JLU

[Red_shift]

quite simple and straight forward.

Any issues relocating the OEM LED fog lights?

Yup it won’t match up the predrilled holes on the LED fog lights (for me at least)

this wasn’t a deal breaker for me - I just zip tied the mounts onto the bumper, just make sure it’s levelled!

Yup, Willy’s stock suspension!

no rubbing on the control arms at full lock turn?

Mine was rubbing the inner fender liner I believe.

Finding parts for the willys edition could get frustrating as it’s like the rubi and sport had a child and it became this:

In my knowledge, the willys edition is basically a sport with rubi suspension and heavier duty brakes. Was frustrating to try and find the right parts as I never truly knew when ordering if it would fit.

35/12.5/17s BFG Mud terrains with no lift, rubi suspension, sport fenders (but obviously trimmed) and the stock Moab wheels.


Very minimal rubbing at full lock. Will be putting a 2.5 lift once it comes in but I’m loving the stance!

Shop told me they couldn’t get the spare tire on the tail gate which really bothered me. I decided to play around with it myself. Needed to raise the third brake light and an extra hand. It fits but definitely rubs the sport rear bumper which I kind of like since It support: the weight of the tire.

(will be getting a relocation/reinforcement bracket soon):

But yeah, hopefully this helps anyone with a willys edition JLU or a sport with rubi suspension takeoffs that is thinking about getting 35s. It works!

Nice Jeep. My wife's Jeep is a Willys as well JLU 2022 Black. We are also wanting to do this put 35's on our Black Rhino Kelso which are 17x9 -18 offset before Mopar Lift arrives. Any issues? Thanks in advance.

I am still waiting for my Rock Rage bumper to arrive. How hard was the installation?

Have the same bumper; love it. Easy to install. I had to loosen the brackets on the frame horns to get the holes to line up for the bolts. Took a few tries for me to realize why they weren't lining up. Easy to re-tighten once it's on.

Soon as you get that off road you're definitely going want that 2" inch lift. I'm sure you already know that being that your already getting it. Doesn't look too bad though. A little tight in the looks department but not bad. I like a lot of space in the wheel wells. I know I can fit 37s on my Xtreme Recon package but I won't unless installed a little more lift. The space with 35s is perfect now. 37s it would look a little tight.
