soo i did the lift and stuffed the 265's on with 1.25 spacers they fit with no cutting i have to trim a tiny amount cause when i reverse full lock it rubs pretty bad but other than that its fine and rides pretty good its the closest to my wrangler im lazy so i havent signed up for cardomain to get pics up ill work on it today but im 100% happy with the lift and tires

tom mud i was in a rush when i wrote it, and the power loss isnt that noticable at all. a little on the sluggish side but im used to it from having lifted wranglers for years so it doesnt bother me. i hope you likemy effort on the punctuations! hahaah

Yep know about the "power loss" no power at all at 55 keeps shifting, runs hotter, longest couple of weeks in my life until I got 4.10s installed
Now back to almost new power, 21 MPG on the highway all day long,

I currently have 31s and 4.10 gears. Thinking about moving up to 32s. Will I be ok with that size tire and 4.10s?

I know I will probably have some more trimming to do.

Well since you have no other choice unless you want to go to a steel front diff form JBA, you'll be good.
I've been running mine ( 265-75/4.10s) for over 55,000 miles now if no regrets
As far as trimming, depends on what lift you have on and how much you're lifted . If running 3.5 inches or so trimming will or should be minimal. Only thing I've done is the pinch weld but of course have the ARB up front and over 4 inches of lift

Thanks.

I have the Frankenlift and ARB bumper up front. Already took care of the pinch weld and also did some trimming in the rear.

Do you have bumpstops front and rear ??

Yeah, I have bump stops. I get the rear pretty flexed sometimes and I was rubbing, so I did a little trimming.
