Great pics. What should I expect for ground clearance? I cant wait. I'm either ordering from Tire Rack or the Local Firestone dealer. The differance in Total price on the liberty is $40.00.

What tires are you going with? Go local....either way you're gonna end up going to a shop to get them installed, so you might as well just buy them at whichever brand's store. Just prepare to deal with the ignorance of your average tire shop owner :roll:
Prepare to say this "I'm not paying you to tell me these tires will rub, I'm paying you to put them on my Jeep..." (point to your KJ).

I think you will find front end ground clearance will very more lift to lift than tires. I show 9 3/4” from the ground to the engine skid and 8 7/8” from the ground to the rear diff. I'm running 2.5" Daystar on the front and OME coils in the back.

As for the tires. I went to Goodyear and got a better price on five installed from the Co. store. Then having Tire Rack ship and get someone local to mount them (got one free). Plus getting them thru Goodyear they will rebalance and rotate free for life. A third party probably won't do that for you.

Just click on the pic for a bigger image, stupid photobucket!

Alright! Rock posing pics are cool!! :lol:

Image

And another, FROM A DIFFERENT ANGLE!!! OOOOO!!! :shock:

I'm kidding, it was a nice spring day, and figured I'd pose out the Renny...JUST FOR YOU! :wink:

Image

Just a small rock....but whatever...it was fun, the Renny drove up onto that rock like it was a ramp, it didn't even feel it! :lol:

Looks good. I like the flat black ARB bumper and black rims. Must make for easy touch-ups!

What size rims are those? Any rubbing anywhere with them?

Some rubbing when the rear wheels are stuffed. The rims are 16x7, w/4" bs. The bumper is coated with truck bed liner. Once the weather gets better, the rack, rock rails and bumper will get another couple of coats.

I'm currently running MT Classic IIs.
