New sneaks. 285/70r17 E ko2's. Decent room left, may rub sway at full left lock. Speedo readings were off before, gps read 68.5 when speedo read 70. Now speedo reads 70, gps is 71.3. I will be getting flashcal anyway, but at least they aren't horribly off now, really less than before. This side shot is from a hit above, has more clearance than it looks. I do not foresee issues there off road, only the sway.

Your photo makes it look a little tight. Might want to consider a small lift? Congrats on the new shoes!

Yep lol, just put over 200 miles on them, loving it and no ill effect with E vs C.

As I noted, the angle makes it look worse. It is tighter for sure, it raised the fender height from 35" to 36", but still prett clear. And yes, rub on full left lock for sure, missed my turn in Manchvegas lol.
This shows it a bit better. And slightly more room up front than in the rear. My goal is to avoid a lift. If needed, I will gain room at the fenders.

It was a long, expensive Friday the 13th. Regear to 4:88 and a rear locker. Playing with Procal now. No, the axle is not crooked, I was croutched down taking the pic with my phone.

Reid knuckles installed and synergy tie rod I picked up off a buddy, along with a rubicon rear that’s getting geared and dynatrac ball joints. Then new nittos get installed next week.

Rubicon rear axle I picked up from my buddy. Got it regeared with revolution 4.56 gears. Painted it and got it all set up for install. Install went great except for breaking the abs sensor clip..

Not exactly this week, but I just finished a couple-weekend project installing Yeti tie-rod, drag link, and track bar along with the Fox ATS stabilizer. These upgrades made a huge difference in my handling. Ran the setup without the Fox stabilizer installed and no more death wobble caused by my weak stock parts that had been thrashed from years of off-roading.
