Metalcloak 2.5" Kit NOW LIVE

[stil2low]

Got my arms and rear track bar reinstalled correctly. Now im considering 37" too much gap for 35".

Good to hear! Glad it was caught before the track bar did some damage. Nothing like trying to mod a exhaust pipe on the trail because it got flattened lol been there

37s with Metal Cloak 2.5 sits perfect IMO.

Just starts to make contact as it hits the bump stops. I'm not going to get as nuts with the JL as we did our old Jk.

Love it. The three settings make a world of difference. Haven't played with the micro settings much yet. 1 is very firm and responsive. 3 is really soft. Good for a road trip down the highway. The Falcon steering stabilizer takes away all the flighty feel in high wind. The jeep will push some but its not darty.

Nice looking lift! I want to do the same lift. Not sure if we can do any minor stacking with that lift: I.E - add a small spacer, but looks great!!

Any chance you could measure the height? I’m going for the same set up but have a grate height of 78inches. I’d really appreciate it!

76.5 just behind the A pillar and 78 at highest point in the back.

thank you for taking the time to do that! I'll probably just have to keep some gear in the trunk or get a heavy rear tire carrier

Just finished mine with the

Metalcloak Gamechanger 2.5" and 35" tires. Tires might look a bit small but I'm happy with it!

Any chance you can get a measurement from the ground to the highest point on the roof? I want this lift, but want to make sure I can fit in the garage with 35s.

do you feel like you need to regear?

I got the metal cloak 3.5in with 35's and I feel that I desperately need to regear and go to 37's. Or at least after I run these tires down.

Firm on the highway works great. Keeps it from being flighty. Medium works better around town. Not a fan of the soft setting.

The regear still remains to be seen. It has plenty of pickup in town. On the highway, it clips along in 6th and 7th at 75 depending on incline or headwind. At 65, it will hold 8th pretty decent. Haven't had it on the highway enough to see what mileage looks like. Its amazing compared to a JK with the Nag1 transmission.

Is that the Falcon shocks which allow adjusting the settings? I am interested to do the MC 2.5", but for what reason should I get teh Falcon over their shocks?

Thanks
