What would y'all think would be needed to run the Humvee Goodyear military tires? 37x12.5x16.5. The wheels aren't a problem they're online. Definitely going to need trimming I know that. I'm aiming for a low center of gravity with still good flex and up travel. Lower body armor will help with the LCG.

Lift? 7 in....?
Axles? D44 front if I can find left hand drive haha. And Ford 8.8 rear?
And gears?

 

The shackles have a bit of an angle, but the leaves look to have some negative arch. The ride is absolutely terrible. Will some new one inch lift leaves help solve the problem?

 

Is this the lift you are talking about?

yes - full leaf pack option is at the bottom

 

Oh ya i see it now thanks. This one is alot more affordable that the skyjacker i was looking at.

 

skyjacker jeep lifts suck anyways - you're better off

 

What shocks would you guys recommend for a RE 3.5" super-ride lift with full packs? I very seldom go off road if that matters...

 

Bilsteins would be the best if moneys not a big deal.

 

Blisteins are my favorite too

 

And if money is a big deal?
I was hoping less than $200 for all 4.. unless thats unlikely

 

You can get zone nitro shocks for less than $200 shipped. Talk Allen in the vendor section. He will hook you up

 

Are zone shocks pretty good? And would I get the 3" or 4.5" shocks?

 

so i may be picking up the coils off a 97 grand with the 4.0 they are 6.5" inch lift coils now i seem to remember reading somewhere they will give you more lift on an xj but i can't remember where or find it is this true and if not should i get the front or the rear springs? i dont' want to go bigger than 6.5

2 questions:

1. What height lift is required to run a 265/75r16 tires? What is the minimum lift or recommended lift for this size?

2. This is probably a stupid question, but: A lift kit typically lifts a half inch lower in the rear to level out the vehicle, right? So a lift is 4 in in front and 3.5 in back?

ok thanks!
