okay, so i have a set of 31s. obviously i cant flex for crap stock. if i trim the fenders to the limits of the wheel wells will the fit with decent trail flex? or should i just wait for the 3" lift on the 01mar? we went out on a trail today and it didnt do to bad, but the street tires SUCK! were going back out tomorrow, and im itching for some *****...

 

im sorry im a bit confused.

if your asking if you can fit 31's with trimming and bumpstopping then the answer is yes you can on stock suspension.

awsome! i was hoping ud say that. i know 30s will rub a little w/o trimming, so i asked. how bad will they rub if i trim them up to the wheel well? keep in mind the first flex will probably break the weld on the sway bar, so it will be flexing to the best of its ability...

 

its all a matter of trial and error, remember the more you bumpstop the more it will limit your uptravel causing you to need to trim less.

you will only need minor trimming with the proper amount of bumpstopping.

well from the pix ive recently seen, i have a feeling ill end up a trailer with stock tires. so i think i might just ride on this one.

 

Be patient grasshopper, good things come to those who wait. I almost trimmed first, like your wanting to do. Now I'm glad I didn't because when I put my lift on It give me 3.5 in the front and now my 31's look (too me) too small If I would have trimmed already then they would have looked way small. If your staying with 31's and a budget boost then by all means trim........

 

well, this is where i eventually want to end up. i was trying to get this jeep around 8 months ago but it sold b4 i got to it.



7.5 ttl lift on 33s

 

just a tip, that persons COG is ridiculous. i would recommend you sticking around 5-6" of lift and something like 35's.

not to mention the added steering stress a 7.5" lift causes.

-Kyle

 

would that be much worse than a YJ with 6" susp lift, SOA (5.5" i think) and 39s? even with the xj having full length D60s from a k30

 

i agree. with 33's stick to about 4.5" 5-6 with 35's. also if you are getting a 3 inch lift soon, wait till then to trim and bumpstop

 

and i am holding off on the trimming, im just riding in an xj on 36 iroks tomorrow. i go back to work wednesday, ill get a pic of the B-btry BC's xj that makes my wet dreams look like a comedy series...

 

just remember, if you wanna dream big thats fine, but the higher you go the higher the cost will be, and it rises exponentially. just my words of wisdom which i had to learn the hard way haha

 

yeah, im now thinking about a set of 225/85 tsl's for $360... b/c id rather not lift it for a little while

 

Do a 2in front spacer and shackle lift. Cheap and then you can clear those 31's.

 

evan at full flex? i do more off roading than street driving...
