After installing the rc 2.5 spacer lift got to enjoy it on the trails. Had a lot more clearance and didn’t scrap hardly as much.

Were you running 35's no lift prior to the spacer lift? Asking as I'm on the fence about the spacer lift b/c I love the look of my Rubi with 35's + no lift. Curious if you have any additional thoughts about the before and after based on your experience.

I am still on the stock 32s! The ride changed a bit not as planted but also not bad. I’d personally buy a more complete lift if this was long term plan. I only put the lift on so that I could mount my 37 that show up next weekend. Plan to swap this out in the next few months.

Change your control arms for more caster! It’ll drive better.

I have to give DV8 a shout out for packaging. My DV8 front skid came in early and its packed with a rubber material wrapped and taped around the skid and its packed in box with spray foam that was a bitch to break apart without tearing box up. Didn't want to destroy box yet.

UPS Shipping can beat to death but want hurt the skid inside. HATS off to DV8

Those are bad ass! Tell me more!!!!!
I do like them! Wiring took me longer than I wanted it to but that was because I wanted them to look factory with everything hidden. I’m super picky with wiring and always over do it. Not a fan of having running lights that high on glass so I opted not to hook up the “Running” lights wire and only did the reverse and brake option.

Added my third brake and reverse lights. So far so good!

I installed these on a gal's JL about a month ago. Install / placement is easy... wiring...ahhh..

I went a whole different route so to speak then suggested in regard to wiring them up.... Took me awhile to wire up but all worked well when done. There instr. were laughable at best..

The quality of these is ok. Installed they do not look bad at all. Kinda unique.

The gal likes them... B/U lighting is so so.... does not compare with some other's. These are an off brand so to speak so I'm not sure how well they will do in regard to water over the long haul. Probably no worse them the iffy reflector b/u light offering by a different manufacturer.

Anyway, the gal likes them and indeed they look different/unique on a JL at night.

Oh, they have these for the JK also. That is what the gal saw them and had to have..

DO, protect these with 303 protectorant or similar to protect from fading..

DO shop around before purchasing... These are coming out of China. They are sold under various brand names but all the same it seems...

Example here ya go ... here is one offering for $23+..

DO look at this link... instructions (very very poor instr), pics and more..

Note: IF you installed and they do not work out, you can get back to stock in a few minutes. Install of these is lets say non-invasive.
