My JK fit 35" tires stock....why lift it? (jk the lift is on order from Metal Cloak).

Most appropriate license plate for how it sits now without the lift and lacking much flex before fender hit:

Mall rated is right lol. My buddy ran 35s with only a Rubicon (slightly taller)spring swap on his JKU X edition with Metalcloak flares all around and it worked really well for him.

This is a Willy's package, so it does have the Rubicon suspension already. Just the stock fenders are really large and cut flexing and the Rubicon suspension still needs a fender to make it work.

I could see the MetalCloak fenders making it work without a lift. Those things are amazing.

I love the low big tire "droop" look. But a 2.5" lift (should measure to 3") will do the trick and get me what I'm after...for now...

Good looking Ranchero, what motor you got in there? The rims look like late-model Ranger rims "thumbsup"

humve 06-20-2015 06:31 PM

Re: lifted truck or car chit chat
 
The motor is a stock 302 that dad and I tuned. The rims are from a mercury mountaineer with ford hub caps.

No wonder you titled it truck or car. You got one of those WTF rides.

It's different all right. When ever I drive it in town people take pictures and say how cool it is.
