With stock axles I wouldn't go higher than 6. But 6 is good.

I am at 6", its not to high for me. but I don't "like" how high it is... but its the compermise I had to make to not be riding on my bump stops. I wish I was back at 5", but don't miss the issues I had hoping the cage/gear/spare ect brings me down to 5-5.5" lol I am just (an inch?) above derek when I have gear in it lol. I also set it up so I can fit 37's when the time comes.



But I wont Lie, off camber in the dark on Moab rim scared the **** out of me... was a bit shooken up in off camber stuff for half the next day. I would agree with stock width 6" should be a max.. I am wider then most with my waggy's and 3.5" BS, but not much.

*EDIT* just for kicks, I am 77" outside of tire to outside of tire.... ( I don't know stock)

My jeep now on 33s. Took me all day to swap tires but once I figured it out it was easy and quick. Now just waiting for my slave cylinder to get here and it should be running

Tristen I'm only on 5.5" of lift and its not tippy at all, even on steep sidehills.. That may be because I'm 90" outside tire to tire..

Probably! I was told I wasn't that bad, I think it was a mix of things, and the dark was playing mind games with me as I could't see what "level" was or where I was going LOL
