Lift/ tire impass

Hey man. Looked at your build. Looks damn good. I saw the wheel specs, thank you sir. Curious what your measurements are from center hub to top of fender for front and rear? I’m pretty much sold on the cooper 255/80’s. I’ll probably get new wheels. All in good time. I’ve gotta order some new cv’s from CVJ. Mine are toast. Slinging grease.

I don’t know off hand what my measurements are and I’m out of town away from my car till sunday so I can get back to you then with the measurements
As far as greasing I haven’t done it yet but I got an email on Tuesday from JBA telling me it’s time to regrease and it’s been right around 3months since they were installed

Dirtrider and Rodtheviking, how frequently are you greasing those JBA UCAs?

I've only got about 500 miles on them so far, so cant really say. I would check and grease at every oil change though. They are easy to get to so no reason to not check them.

Thanks guys. I was thinking once a quarter would be good, but I had no idea. I’ll be curious to see how long the ball joint last for. I haven’t seen many folks running these so there isn’t much out there on longevity.

Saw these on jba site. Wonder if 1/4” spacer with 255/80’s on the fj wheels would clear the uca and still keep the wheel hub centric?
