    Anyone have pictures of their TJ with 35's on a 4 inch lift?

    Gear Ratio for 35's on 1999 TJ 4.0?

    Hey, so I'll be putting on 35's to my 1999 TJ with a 4" lift. Now I hear about re gearing so the car will run better, and so I'm confused with the chart about what I really need.

    Hey everyone, so I recently got a lift put on, the 4.25 zone combo lift, and discovered after it was put on, there were some noticeable vibrations for about 10 seconds on acceleration then they go away.

    Will 3” lift shocks work for a 2.5” lift?

    I have a 2000 jeep tj with a 2.5 inch lift I need to find cheap shocks that work well, I found pro comp shocks, but they don’t have an opinion for 2.5 inches of lift, it’s only 0-2 inches or 3-4 inches or something like that, will the shocks for a 3inch lift work for my 2.5 inch lift?

    When is it time for new shocks?

    My TJ was a DD when I first got it. I put a lift on it shortly afterwards. It's been running a RE 3.5" lift kit for around 6 or 7 years. I was finally able to replace it with another DD. I've been keeping the miles off of it for just over two years. Now, I mostly wheel it and take it on the...
