Does anyone have experience with the BFG all terrain ko2? Im selling my 33" maja MTZ set and gettting a 30" tire. I need a tire that works great on and off road. I go offroad about 25% of the time, and have a 3" lift.

I'm saying like a diy bumper. Or a used one. In fort Walton Beach Florida not to many people sell xj parts or have xjs for that mater

Quick question y'all.

Recently installed my re 2" budget boost with an AAL and coil spacers up front and their shocks. Rides great and love it. However I have the lift bug now and will want to go higher in the future. It's my DD and an occasional offroader. no extreme for me, just a trailer to go out and camp with.
I know the aal are going to sag after a while. When that goes down (literally) I'd like to upgrade to a 3" leaf pack and 3" coils. Will I be able to use my same shocks I got from my budget boost or will I need to upgrade those too? Thanks!

If those are the right length for a 2" lift, they'll be fine at 3". And if you think spacers and AALs ride great, you'll melt when you get proper springs

Oooh don't say that! Make me want upgrade tomorrow! Lmao.
Yeah, the shocks came with the re lift package so they're proper length. Thanks for the reply and info!

As far as I'm aware, they don't make the KO2's for a 15" wheel. They look like they're a great tire and a great improvement on the KO1's.

Hey all,

I own a 2000 jeep cherokee sport and I'm going to install a 4.5 inch rugged country lift on it. I'm looking to increase my tire size on it afterwards and I don't really have an idea on what. The current tire size on the jeep is 235/75/R15 and I'm going to replace the wheels and tires with new ones. I'm looking for advice considering good tire/wheel sizes, recommended gear ratio changes and such. Most everything on the vehicle is stock to my knowledge and any help is appreciated. Thanks.

I bought the OME cs033rb's and the 3034 springs. I'm trying to achieve a more level look. I've read that I should remove one of the leaf's from the RB's to get it around 2.5, but does it matter which one of the leaf's I remove? Also, what brand/size spring spacer should I look at for the front to get the best quality ride.

Remove the 3rd leaf from the top as far as spacers poly is poly, I bought some daystar spacers.

4.5" should allow you to fit 33" tires as long as your wheel backspacing is 4" or less. It's recommended that you re-gear to at least 4.10:1 by that point and replace your speedo sensor.

Out of curiosity, where are you getting this lift from? Never heard of a Rugged Country lift. Is it perhaps Rough Country? If so, you would be much better off with a 4.5" Rubicon Express lift... much better bang for the buck.

Here's a few charts and whatnot to help you out....

Here's one that will tell you what teeth count your speedo gear needs to be:

Dear Lord, THANK YOU FOR THAT CHART. Could we get that stickied to the top, I feel like so many questions could be answered instantly.

NewKindOfClown

Haha thanks. Reactions like that make me glad I took the time to put it together

Very impressive set of information, more than what I was hoping for! This will be very useful for my overall cost estimation. The lift is rough country my bad. I'll take a look at the other lift and do a comparison. Thank you very much for the help and it's a great idea to move this information to the front of this forum section.
