Here's a pic of my 07 Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon with my first level of modification finished. I'm running a TeraFlex 2.5 lift, Pro Comp 35x 12.50 tires and 17" wheels, an LoD front bumper with Warn winch.

That looks freakin' incredible. Nice work. Now if they only offered a CRD version of the Wrangler in the states...

Thats awesome a 2" lift and 35's.

Actually its a 2.5 inch lift. I typed it wrong the first time. Still, 35s with no more lift than my Liberty has is nice.

Im not a big fan of the new look but thats the way they should look, I think thats the best color choice for the new style. Very nice for your first mod.

Oh MAN! That is just BEAUTIFUL!

I hope you RainXed the windshield though, because...

BTW, that is one of the better looking full width front bumpers (I really like the stubby ones like Kilbys). Stock fogs in it? Also, how much did the lift run ya and did you install yourself? If so, how was it?

(asking because my father-in-law wants his lifted to clear 35's too)

It's getting harder and harder to hold myself back from buying one.

Do those tires stick out past the fenders?

JacksJeep · **Posted:** Thu Aug 23, 2007 8:23 pm

Thanks for the compliments.

Now some answers:
The fogs are stock.
Yes, the tires do stick out of the flares a little.
The TeraFlex lift with shock extenstions was only $225.
I did the install myself, but I wouldn't recommend it. You really need a good helper at points. It was bear by myself but would be much easier with two men.

JJ it look great.
I don't know if you ever get to watch Xtreme 4x4 on the weekends on Spike TV. If not here are a couple of links that show their JK build up both a start and a xtreme build. :

This is stage one in February and stage 2 in March. It was a sweet build either way and you have a list of venders too.
Hope this was helpful or at least just fun to look at.

Thanks for the lift info. I guess I will put my two teen sons to work helping me lift grandpas JK. :wink:

A bit off topic but....
Here is a quick look at two bumpers that I like
MOPAR

AEV

both pricey but I like the way they contour to the lines of the JK

By the way..... this JK is looking sharp !!!
