Jeep jk unlimited with a 2 inch OME lift

[Jeeper4life]

So a couple years later I finally got around to getting my springs and lift on. Here’s the final turn out lol

That was pretty much right after putting the springs on. I think maybe it’s settled a bit but not much. Once my current tires wear down more, I will upgrade the tire size a bit.

That pic has me drooling! I had an OME lift on my last JKU and loved it. Just bought a new Recon and now I'm ready for another! Love the color of your jEEP!!

Thanks! I feel like it’s settled a little bit so 35’s might be tight. But I’m completely fine with running a 33 inch tire. It has basically 31’s on it now.

Check out the 285/75/17 Nitto Ridge Grapplers. They are almost exactly a 33" which so was my 315 KO2's.

Looks like what i am looking for with my 2017 Willys JKU. What other adjustments did you have to make? Shocks? Any driveline issues?

Thanks,
Dave

I'll reply. On mine I did the OME shocks and bought some brackets to extend my brake lines. I also did a teraflex track bar bracket for the rear axle later that had zero felt effect. Pro comp has some nice brake line brackets for the front axle. They're part #90-7203 and 90-7204 and they're the nicest brackets i've found. I'll definitely be buying tem when I lift my new JKUR. I did adjust my front drag link to get the steering wheel straight and experienced zero drive shaft issues and the Jeep now has over 60k on it.

Anybody have any pictures of a 4 door JK with the 2 inch heavy duty old man emu springs? I'm pretty set on those springs, just would like to see how much lift or how little lift I will get from them. Also what size tires are you running with it? Thanks for any replies!

I'm currently running the OME 2619/2620 combo. Heavy springs 2.25"/2.0" stated lift. This is how I'm sitting on 315 BFG AT KO2s.

Those are pretty much 35’s aren’t they?

Not an old man emu but a 2" mopar and 285/75-17 should be about the same height for comparison.

Is the E load rating that bad? How does it comp to the stock C load?

Thanks

I love them and feel no difference.

Eh...people like to think they are 35s, but they are much closer to 34"-33.5" once mounted and aired properly.
