1.75 should be ok. But expect the tires to be a tight fit.

I have 31" on my jeep, 2.5 lift in front (plenty of room) and 2" in the rear and it keep hitting the inner wells.

Well I planned to add a spacer to get 2.5'' in the front and those rear springs should net me about 1" or so in the back...so I read. That would allow me to see how it looks and then add a shackle or whatnot to get a little more if I need to balance it out. That's the plan anyway...

XJWonders,

Got a picture of the axle; can you confirm that this is a D44? Based on some research it sure seems to look like one.

Thank you,

-Matt
