Goal: lift + big tires on 2019 JLU Moab
Background: My first Wrangler build. Getting advice from a local shop and family member. Hoping to get CONSTRUCTIVE criticism here too. I maybe should have gotten the Rubicon, but I'm going with what I have and can't look back now. So please don't bust me for the Moab. No rock climbing down here in Florida, just muddy trails. I work 50 hrs a week, so I'm a weekend warrior at best. Daily commute is 30 miles so the drive is important to me.
Considering the following parts order:
Terraflex JLU 3.5" sport ST3 suspension stabilizer
Terraflex JL/JLU: Falcon Nexus EF 2.1 Steering Stablizier
22x10 Fuel Off-road cast wheel black (TBD)
37x12.5R22/12 127Q Toy Open Country A/T II Xtreme tires
Splined lug nut set
TPMS valve system
J-Cal Flashcal Speedo Calibrator
**Planning on saving $1700 by not getting the 5th tire/wheel since I would then also have to get the tailgate reinforcement system and spare tire carrier mounting bracket. This looks to be about a $7,000 package without the 5th wheel and $7k is ALOT for me right now. Local shop doing the install, so labor costs could come in around $1K I'm told.
I know I can get away with doing this for less, but I'm trying to keep my warranty and keep a decent daily drive. Be NICE
