Thanks for hosting this fine forum. I have been a happy owner of a 2006 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon Unlimited (or is it 'Unlimited Rubicon'?). Still have while (about 7 months) left to pay it off then I will be having fun accessorizing the heck out of it. All I've done so far is replace the worn out factory rubber with 5 265R75 R 16's Pro-Comp all-terrains. Can't go any bigger without a lift or replacing the fenders (I think). Look forward to many years of enjoyment with that great go anywhere, do anything rig.

Steve

Hoping to do a 2 1/2 inch lift first to accommodate some 33 x 12.50 mud terrain tires in my garage, already mounted on 15x10 wheels for 5 on 4.5 in bolt pattern, used them 1 winter season on my '76 Ramcharger, which now has 35 x 12.50's. The diameter of the tires I run now is 31 inches, so I thought that might be enough of a lift. Unless I want more articulation and install a disconnect for the anti-sway bars, then have to go more lift.

I was hoping that would be enough of a lift for 33's, what do you think?

ty for your feedback, guess I'll definitely need more lift then. The tires are Hankook Mud Terrain T-34's. Do you believe another inch would be ok? or 2?

Also curious what you think about ~

Truck-Lite LED Headlamp Kit For 97-06 Jeep? Wrangler TJ

Every 12-13 months I have to replace the standard type incandescent headlights (low beam dies), and thought these might be a good 'permanent' solution.
