Expected Height Increase?

[CarbonSteel]

I have been chatting with @Headbarcode about his lift and tires and the height of his sliders from the ground and thought that I would ask here too.

On my stock Rubicon with 33" tires, it is 17" to the top of the ROAM slider step. Am I correct in assuming it will be +1" to move from 33" to 35" tires and +2.5" for the MetalClock 2.5" Game Changer lift making it 20" to the top of my ROAM step?

Just trying to see if the little lady is going to have trouble getting in and out of it.

Well, 20.5" at least on paper. The actual ride height with the lift and tires may vary a bit but in general you are correct. Not all "35" tires are in fact 35" and not all 2.5" lifts are in fact 2.5" but you will be close... Sorry to be wishy washy but it really is not EXACT....

Thanks, I am just concerned that it will be quite a bit more than 20.5". I may jack up that side to 21" and see what that does.

Sounds about right, id say close to if not 21”

Of course she will. Start researching steps too.

FWIW: I've found that it's most accurate & easy to compare the shock eye-to-eye lengths.

I'm pretty sure he's got the Roam sliders with steps, very similar in design to the LOD Destroyers.

Yes; indeed I do.
