40s ONLY!

I'm running RK4.5 coils but I think they net 3.5" over stock height because of the way the spring pads are so close to the axle tube on my axles.

The rockers are made by Nemesis. They are frame mounted.

My lower control arms are 24.25" from bolt center to bolt center.

Lowers are set right at 24” right now

If the axle is fairly centered under the bump stop tower I'd say you either need more lift or you need to do some trimming.

Can you take pics of the bump stop tower in the coil?

You can kinda see how my tire would get into the stock fender but I'm running 72.5" wide axles with 4.5" backspacing.

I’m running stock width axles with the KM229 Machete Crawl wheels with 3.5 backspacing.

If you need anything else don't be afraid to ask. I like helping others.

Which rockers are you running? I liked these Rock Hard sliders because the provide protection so far forward. Now I see the downfall of them. I’ve been wondering if I have to change them up which ones to go with.

I'm on 38's right now but am trying to plan ahead, so having sliders that didn't extend too far towards the tires was one of the things that helped narrow me down to the LOD Destroyers.

Are any of you guys having to trim sheet metal, the back of the fender?

This is the stuff that drives me nuts. Why am I fighting this? I can’t help but think something is out of whack with something since it’s just the passenger side.

I just don’t buy it... few guys said it’s a Jeep. They are all a little different.

I had to trim the fender wells in the rear.

I followed my Nemesis flares.

Man... you do some good work. That trim job looks great.

How do you like Nemesis flares? I like the MetalCloak, GenRight and Nemesis. Going to change to one of them once I get this project settled.

 

[DOOKEY]

Thanks. I've built quite a few Jeeps so you pick it up as you go along.

I really enjoy the Nemesis flares. There are trade offs with it. If you hit a rock with these flares you're damaging a bunch of stuff. I built this JL for more of a sight seeing kind of vehicle that can tackle whatever. So I don't expect to be racing KOH with it. More of a fun vehicle to pack the dogs in and go.

The quality of the Nemesis products has always been top notch. They look the part. So I'm really happy with them.

For 40's i trimmed the crap out of the back of the rear and lots of the front including where the turn signals are attached too
