BB

[fro-nig]

hey guys, i blew out a tire on thursday. the tire has to be replaced and i cant find one of these no name tire that came with the jeep anywhere so i at least have to buy 2 new ones, of a dif. brand, into the rear.

but here is what i am thinking. since i at least have to buy 2 tires, i am thinkin maybe its time for a 2" bb and get a set of 30's.

what do you guys think?? would def make the jeep look a lot better, they are too low stock for my liking. i would rather buy a kit rather then a bastard pack route. so obviously i would get front spacers for the front. but options for the rear. 2" lift packs or shackle or aal. i know new packs would be the best. but i dont want to spend all that money on new packs that i feel is kinda a waste of money for such a small lift. so..........shackles or an aal?? what would you guys recommend?? i am leaning towards the aal because that will be much easier of an install the the shackles. let me know

specific kits you would recommend would be nice too

thanks

the other thing is that i want to run ss tsl radials. i find em in 30x10.5 but the BB says up to 30x9.5. do you guys think that 1/2"ish on the inside is actually gonna give me a problem?? this is on stock wheels too

or save like 10 bucks a tire and get the 31x9.5 tsl's. they are like 30.7" tall. what ya think??

if it were me, i go 31's and possibly trim.. thats just me though..

heres my take

rusty's 3" AAL is same cost, but 3" of course. 3" u can still keep it cheap, run 31s, and be able to tackle much more things. i ran that exact kit and was very happy with it back in the day.

hmmmmm looks like that will be the way i will go then. i am gonna order that and go with the 31" tsl's

sounds like a plan!

i hope i wont get any vibes with the 3" lift ( i hope i am one of the lucky ones). if i do i guess a nice little t-case drop is in order

also, did you go with the standard one or the heavy duty one? which do you recommend??

[fro-nig]

aight well i ordered the rusty's 3" kit with the HD stuff
and 4 31x9.5r15 SS TSL radials

man i cant wait to get this thing a little bit bigger.

will do you know how fast rusty usually ships?? the tires should be here like thursday(summit is really good/fast on shipping) so basically i am gonna have to wait till like saturday to do this lift, as long as it is in by then

its been a lonnnng time since i last dealt with rustys but mine was timely, bout a week i think or maybe a tiny bit less, but from what ive heard it really varies

i hope it comes soon.

they charge and arm and a leg for shipping, was like 45 bux. all for tires shipped the same way was 28 bucks.
