some pictures and specs as promised, just a couple days later :whoops:
So after the lift was installed i had to put in some wheel spaceers because the axle shifted over so much in the rear and i have not resleeved the panhards let to correct the shift. i personally like having the 1.5" wheel spacers in front and rear so my stance is wider, more stable, and i dont get caught sitting in Jeep ruts so much on skinny trails. the only draw back to that is crud gets flung up on the cruiser more than ever before.
I am getting just a little bit of rubbing in the rear, after some wheel well lip flattening i should be okay. same for the front but not nearly as drastic, ALL RUBBING is of course only when fully stuffed. I do have plans to lower the bump stops, only if needed after wheel well adjusting, unless my shocks are telling me otherwise on compression.
On the road these handle so nice. i'm currently running Stock gears but havent noticed a ton of power loss, granted i live in mainly flat terrain except for trail use. once i travel through the mountain trails i'm sure to notice some major snail movement. eventually i will go 5.29's to help the engine out. Braking has not been effected to much either.
Trail use is unbelievable!!! For this short quick trip to my local crawling spots, i was NOT aired down and i still grabbed on to anything that the lugs on these beasts could touch. even in the mud, WHICH I H8 MUD, the KM2's just pushed through it and i was never worried or had slipped around in. i can only imagine how much sweeter these tires are when i air down tire pressure next trip out.
Have I mentioned yet how Bad A$$ these tires are and the look so tuff on these LC's.
Thank you all for the inspiration and insight,
