35s with spacer

[Deleted User 38384]

He's already got that covered with the wing. It's redirecting all the downforce onto the rear, protecting the front end components!

@Tredsdert is our resident high speed guinea pig. I wonder if he's experimenting with anything similar.

I have a 1-in TeraFlex front coil spacer to even out the Wranglers rake after my weight reductions.

I have 1.25 in rough country body pucks at home which I was planning on installing at some point in the future. I just keep putting that one off.

I was doing 106th this morning because I could. Only for about maybe a quarter of a mile or so. I've noticed no issues myself with the front coil spacers.

Only thing I have noticed is ever since I've reconnected my front sway bar links, the Jeep is so stiff. I can feel every bump in the road. That used to only be true with the rear. But now it's like every little thing I can feel it. Kind of thinking I might remove the front sway bar end links again. I'm just not sure if they're going to create a negative rake eventually from the vehicle's weight on the coils? ?‍

I guess I could technically just slow down, but where's the fun in that!!?

Hey guys, quick question. My 2023 Willys 4xe, running 1.5 inch spacers with center line rims with 35x12.5x20. no lift. All stock shocks suspension. Am I safe for this set up? Or should I take off the spacer.

My Humble opinion is take off the spacers. They change the load point on your differential and are not safe at all. Read a few comments about folks with spacers and crashes, wheels flying off. But thats just my viewpoint. If you want wide tire buy a wider wheel and make the offset what you want. (Offset is the centerline in percentage 50/50 would be dead center)

Are you feeling it in the steering wheel or actually throwing you around? I had a similar issue and I installed dual Steering dampeners and WOW like driving a Cadillac. That steering wheel and even ruts and buts are much less painful.

So no, I'm not feeling it in the steering wheel. Just in how much the vehicle is shaking.

I think my problem is I was running without sway bar end links in the front for almost a whole year. When I do remove the sway bar end links, all of the road vibration feelings go away. I think the issue for me at least is that I'm not as used to my Wrangler being so stiff with the sway bar end links connected. At least that's my take on it.

Honestly the only reason I keep the end links connected at this point is because without them it's already dangerous enough at highway speeds, let alone going a hundred plus. Also too I'm running 32 in highway terrain tires instead of the mud terrains which came with the vehicle. The mud terrains I had before I believe were three ply, and these Maxxis Bravo series HT tires are 10 fly, so a little bit more stiff of a sidewall to say the least.

I'm also back to using the OEM wheels which came with my Willys Sport. I'm not sure if that matters at all.
