    JKU spring and shock help

    Thanks for the feedback Matt. That picture is +1.5 spacers in the front, then? I really like the idea of OME the best. Looks like my biggest challenge with OME is going to be limiting actual lift to the neighborhood of 2.5" - they seem to run pretty 'strong'. Have you done anything with the...

    JKU spring and shock help

    Forgive an old rock crawler who is still learning a bit about overlanding builds. I have a 2014 JKU Sport with a hard top that is in need of replacement springs and shocks. Above the stock weight, I am +180 lbs in the front (ARB bar, winch, skids), +60 lbs in the rear (ARB bar), and +100...

    Was it drinking Corralejo blanco straight from the bottle that made you consider selling this rig? :D

    From JK rock crawler to JK overlander - new to the portal!

    Thanks for the feedback from everyone! Yes, pics are coming eventually....if the weather ever shapes up enough for me to wash the beast and get some pics taken! Feedback seems mixed on the axle reinforcement. On one hand I'll be using a narrow 33.3" tire that is comparatively light on stock...

    From JK rock crawler to JK overlander - new to the portal!

    So I recently traded my '09 2-dr Rubi for a '12 JKU Sport. The '09 was a crawler...it was an intermediate level build, 3.5-ish inches of lift and 35s, but was near unstoppable. This time around I'm taking a different approach. The '12 I'd like to keep a bit more modest. Thus far, it has a 2.5...

    Which 255 85 R16 to choose?

    The saga continues. I can't find the Open Country in that size anywhere, everyone that used to list them now says out of stock. Maxxis? No dealers within 50+ miles of me. Been there done that with the Cooper STs, don't really want them again. Looks like I'm going with the BFGs. On another...

    Which 255 85 R16 to choose?

    Thanks for the feedback guys, exactly what I was looking for. Jim K - if you don't mind, could you divulge where you have found the OCs for that great price? I don't have pics just yet, but I'll take some pics of the 'roller skate' in the next few days before the mods start and post 'em up!:)

    Which 255 85 R16 to choose?

    This is my first post here, so I'll give a little background. I live in CO, and recently traded my fairly built '09 2-door Rubicon JK for a '12 4-door Sport JK. Since I have the factory dinky donuts on my new JK, I'm looking for a modestly-sized and very tough tire. My 2-door was a wheeling...
