Just ordered my Frankenlift lift, JBA 4.5 UCA, quick disconnects an brake lines! Pretty excited! Ill post before an after pics! Still unsure of what tires to mount on my rig..ill be keeping the stock rims an it will be my daily driver to, so I want good tires for both on an off road. Suggestions anyone? Thanks in advance!

Welcome to the lifted club :JEEPIN:

As for tires its kinda whatever you like. I have Nitto Terra Grapplers and they have worked really well for me. Can't wait to see your pictures

Sweet! I have a car I'm trying to finish up for a friend, soon as I do that I'm going to order my lift kit too!

I have the General Grabber AT2's on mine, and I love 'em so far!

Duratracs
over 49,000 miles and still doing great
have went more places in two wheel drive than it did in 4 wheel with
the Destinations/Kumhos/ BFG-ATs etc that I tried on the KJ

I would highly recommend the JBA link extension. I replaced my upper control arm and all the bushings were torn in 5K. Ill be replacing them all again, this time with the link to bring the UCA arm back into stock specs.

I'm a big fan of treadwright. You cant beat the price and their quality is great. I have the warden AT's in a 245/75/16, which are BF Goodrich All Terrain tread pattern. I have 15k on them and they are wearing great and even. They are a beast in the snow and pretty quiet on the highway. The only issue i have is the weight. I don't get offroad at much so a lighter tire would help my MPG. My next set may be the Puma All Terrain in a 235/70/16.

4 BFG All terrains shipped is $885
4 Treadwright wardens shipped is $480
it was an easy choice for me and im more than satisfied

Where'd you order it all from? How long was the shipping? I'm about to order mine from JBA shortly.

tommudd · **Posted:** Tue Nov 27, 2012 6:10 pm

depends on if its in stock at Marlins (JBA) or not.
He trys to keep a good stock but as much as he sells he sometimes has to wait on ARB to ship out
Best bet is to call him and see if everything is in stock and if there's any wait to deliver
I haven't talked to him lately so don't know what he has stock wise. I know he was waiting on Ironman springs/shocks

I ordered everything on the 15th of this month so it was roughly a two week wait, but there was also a holiday within that time period too. I ordered my frankenlift from All J Products an my extended brake lines an UCA an disconnects from JBA. Everything came fast cant wait to put everything on!

Finally lifting my KJ!
