My Jeeps New Stance! (Kinda) -UPDATED-

TechJeeper · September 07, 2007, 08:25:10 AM

I bought some 4" lift coils so I could get rid of my spacers. Well I got the rear coils on last night, shouldnt have taken so long but, my Jeep likes to be difficult to say the least. I went from 3" spacers to 4" coils, here are some pics. I will pry put the fronts on tonight, then I still have to do the T-Case drop, that of which I am kind of afraid of doing...

Side View:

Rear Lifted:

Front (Still only spacers, for comparison):

Now I just need to decide what rubber I am going to go with....

Get the Cooper Discoverer STT's. I am very happy with them. I can get you a deal from Discount Tire in Burton.

Thanks, I will have to take a look at them. Any chance you could see what a set of 33s would cost?

Thanks,
Cody

The T-case drop is simple. Just make sure you lossen the trans mount bolts up so the bolts can slide to there new location.

Cody, surf around on line and find the cheapest price you can find. The manager at DT will match the price. Thats what I did. I think I paid $1150.00 for all 5 of my tires w/ tax and with the lifetime rotation/balance, and with the warranty. That's for my 35's. When you find what you want, just let me know and I'll make a phone call to let him know your comming up to talk to him.

If your getting 33's, you might want to look into the newer model Kuhmo MT's. I saw a guy at Pig Gig last year with them and they preformed excellent. Plus their quite a bit cheaper.

PLEASE tell me you drove your Jeep like that to work! PLEASE!

You would fit RIGHT in in Flint! Just tell people they are airbags!

Good start Cody. You work at ROCKY's don't ya'?

My son spoted your jeep and about came unglued yelling at me, "dad there is the guy from your club" over and over like I didn't hear him the first time. "The one with the tree on it"...

try mitches tire process, if it still ends up being too much, my mud kings were cheap, and they perform great. i would rather have these than the bfg's. my 32x11.50's were about $600 for 4 new ones at belle tire

Finished the front and the tcase drop last night. Rides amazing compared to the spacers!

Thanks Matt for helping.
