Results may vary. My tires are 31" and I'm close to 18" at the pinch welds.

Rig looks great by the way, good job.

How many miles on your rene?It looks new,Also was there any problems with your install?About how much time and if any help was needed,Thanks---It looks graet..

Infrared06 · **Posted:** Sat Jul 15, 2006 9:44 pm

It's a 2006 with 6000 miles

Got Mudy today!!!

My Install took about 3.5 Hours, I had two friends help me. I would say its a two person job but i guess it could me done alone its much easyer with help. The back took us about an 1 hour the front pasanger side 1.5 hours drivers front .5 Hour .5 hour to button up under the hood. There is a big learning curv once you know what to do it goes faster. See my car domain page I have pics of the install if you want to see!

Watch hitting the mud holes to hard -- that part that looks like a skid under the front, is only made of plastic and is held on by double face tape. Mine came off in a mud hole :-(

JFortier777 · **Posted:** Sun Jul 16, 2006 12:02 pm

And mine came off in a water crossing.

Infrared06 · **Posted:** Sun Jul 16, 2006 2:48 pm

Thanks for the heads up I saw how it was attached when I was hacking the xtra plastic off the front. I thought of hacking it off anyway but I want to wait until I get a new bumper. I cant decide on an ARB or a Rock Lizard when it is done.

Renegade07 · **Posted:** Sun Jul 23, 2006 2:17 am

hey, the renegade looks awesome...mine will be really similar soon...i was just wondering what kind of gas mileage you were getting after the lift and tires. thanks

Infrared06 · **Posted:** Mon Jul 24, 2006 1:38 pm

I get about 18 mpg on my daily drive to work mostly highway. I used to get around 20 mpg before the lift. I think its more than woth it!!!

Renegade07 · **Posted:** Tue Jul 25, 2006 1:33 am

ohh yeah def. worth it...but man you are getting better mpg than me stock...but i deal with the ozark mountains...still wont stop me though...ive got items on order then we will be near twins...thanks for the info

Infrared06 · **Posted:** Tue Jul 25, 2006 7:31 am

My daily drive is almost all highway and no big hills it makes a huge difference in mpg. I get about 16 mpg on the back roads to PA.
