Looked back through this thread & I have another question for you.I genuinely hope it helps someone else. Makes the Jeep so handy. Like a Polaris ranger crew you drive to where you want to hunt. No need to gut a deer to clean. Haven’t gutted one in 20+ years
That's awesome news. I was rather hoping that was the case. My JLUR will be used mainly the same as yours. Some daily driving, but mainly driving just to get to hunting & fishing locations, & some vacation traveling. But, that will be for getting to more fishing & hunting locations. Nice to know, as 35s should fill the bill for me as well. I just need right at 11.5-12 inches of ground clearance, so I am hoping not to need a lift & not to go over 35s.I ended up not using a spacer. I initially thought I would when I had the poison spyder bumper up front and just the factory one on the the rear, but it leveled out when I put on the rear poison spyder bumper. Less than a quarter inch difference in fender gap from front to back and no rubbing even going over terraces loaded with deer.
How did this work out in the end? Did you need a lift to avoid rubbing at max articulation / steering?those with a positive offset would “tuck” and be just fine. Guess I’ll know soon enough when I start to flex over some AG terraces.
Short answer = I haven’t had any problems, but I’m still not sure.How did this work out in the end? Did you need a lift to avoid rubbing at max articulation / steering?
is that front hitch an option on the aftermarket bumper or a separate item?I added a cutdown atv fairlead to the top of the bullbar and a front receiver through the skid plate to attach a rack I fabbed up out of lightweight aluminum to help me load up and transport deer. I just run the rope over top through the atv fairlead and it takes all the weight of the deer. I just have to do a little guiding.
Wow!! Thanks!! Did you get all the info you need?So I went through 102 pages on the granite page and out of a thousand Granite JL's, I like your stance the best. I saw where someone already requested wheel tire sizes. Yours is one of my favorites.
I think so. I have about another month or so before I can even order mine. I will not be using it for offroading. But I think I'm going to try 33's at first and then move to 35's like yours. You have an incredible jeep. Not too much-just enough to make it yours..Wow!! Thanks!! Did you get all the info you need?
