    How much is too much backspacing? What's ideal?

    I know several of the wheels out there run a 3.5" backspace and that seems to be ideal for running 37 or 40" tires. I've searched the threads and can't find the answer to folks are running less than 3.5". My wheels are 4.4" backspace and am running 1 1/4" wheel spacers with 37x13.50R17 SST...

    King Front & Rear Bump Stops-King 2.5 w/res-Dynatrac Brake-AEV 4.5 Springs

    Before deciding on going with the King Rear Bump Stop kit, I scoured the internet looking for pictures. I could only find one and it wasn't very good. I went with the King install kit because I liked that I didn't have to cut into the frame to install them. Thought I'd post up pictures for...

    Beadlocks Re-Torque Schedule/Requirements

    I've read that many of you run beadlocks on your daily driver or at least run them full-time. I purchased a set of MOPAR beadlocks for my 37x13.5R17 SST Pros. I don't put a lot of miles on my Jeep but I am planning a few road trips >1000 miles round-trip in the near future. The instructions...

    JKU Finally Finished (for now): Dynatrac, King, EVO, Reid, RSC Shafts, PSC Big Bore

    Well, after a lot of help and advice given on this forum I finally picked up my JKU Rubicon from ORE last week. My Jeep is a 2013 and have been building it up since I purchased it new. Pain of building is spread out over 5 years and I have more patience than money. I've waited for "deals"...

    Flat Towing Setup for a JK

    Difference between 37s and 40s

    Question: What issues arise from going from a Toyo 37x12.50R17 that weighs 83lbs to the Wrangler 40X13.50R17LT that weighs 86lbs? If you have 1350 fr/rr drivelines and are re-gearing anyway, would a PR44 with RSC shafts and Ten Factory rear shafts in a stock Dana44 rear handle the Wrangler 40...

    ORE Enforcer Pro Stage 1, 2, 3

    ORE just released the stage 1, 2, and 3 packages for their bolt-on coilover lifts. Having seen the EVO control arms, they are impressive and stout in comparison to stock. I like the idea of having adjustable and greaseable ends that the EVO control arms offer as well. What is your take on the...

    Does anyone know if the Currie Johnny Joint Track bar is compatible with the Synergy Track Bar/Sector Brace? I've read what Synergy says but I've also read where folks have used other brand of track bars. Thanks

    Wave from Orange County

    Though I am military and can't claim OC as home, the weather and number of Jeeps running around have sure made it a great place to live. I've owned my 2013 JKU Rubicon since it had just 1300 miles on it. It just rolled 17K. I have been building it as an overlanding/hunting/camping family rig...
