Wow this thread is borderline overwhelming! So many awesome rigs. I'm trying to decide on a lift for my 16 trail edition. Thought I had it narrowed down to OME vs icon vs toltec boss but now I'm lost again
Post your LIFTED pix here!

That’s why I had to have one of each! Jeep is a play toy and is FUN, T4R gets me where I need to go for work. I ain’t taking the JK on a 9 hr road trip any time soon, that’s for sure. I love them both, just each in their own ways.

Ditto! My T4R is my drive to work and family get away vehicle. My Jeep Wrangler Unlimited is my days off, running around town, going to the beach vehicle. On my days off I need stress relief and the Jeep is a great coping mechanism.
Just the other day my wife and I were driving on the interstate and we passed a Range Rover Sport. I looked at her and said, "If I ever won the lottery.....and she said you realize if you didn't have your 4Runner and your Jeep you'd be able to afford one of those." She made a good point but I'd much rather have the two vehicles I have now. They both provide a lot of versatility and utility. Just gets a little pricey modding both.

I had a 2016 RRS. They aren't all they're cracked up to be. The novelty wears off fast. I am vastly happier with my 4Runner and $1200/mo extra in my pocket.

Hey, nice looking rig. I've been interested in this lift. How's it ride and do you have any rake?

Hello, I'm looking at the same setup (5100's and Dob's c59-302 c59-505) and was curious what you think of the ride? Did you install the front struts @ 0? Also did you happen to measure before and after lift totals? Thanks....Mark

Thanks and I’m very happy with the ride(884 light coil in front and 889 medium coil in the read) and yes I do have rake as you can see in the picture. Maybe if I did the 2”ToyTec spring in the rear instead it would have been a little more level. I’m guess about maybe an 1” rake. Honestly I haven’t measured. The JBA UCA I’m super happy with easy install and grease fittings are easily accessible for greasing. Hope that helps.

What do you have the front set at? I set mine to 1.75 with the same 275/70/17 bfgs, and I'm rubbing in reverse only on the front bumper when wheel is fully turned in both directions. I was surprised as well.

Very common to rub there. I rubbed there with my 285/70/17 when stock, still rubbed there after my 3" lift. Just push the liner forward and trim the bumper, easy fix.

Thanks a lot. Got my Kaena Point pass. Maybe I’ll see you around there.
Yes....the same at 1.75, from what I've read from others I shouldn't have had any rubbing, but it did on both sides in reverse. I pushed the liner forward and cut the bumper a little bit and it's all good now.

For everyone's reference. Here is what stock tires look like on a 2" front and 1.5" rear spacer lift. I aligned the cars' scale and levelled the photos at the hubs for your convenience.
It ended up lifting the truck and cut the rake in half. (still some rake, which I wanted) Will be upgrading to 275's or 285's soon. Will post another comparison shot once finished.

Sharing 2” front spacer lift, rear OME trim spacers, new 275/70R17 Kuhmo AT51 tires.
Nothing huge but figured it might help others make buying decisions.
Looking great! Where did you get the TRD center cap overlays?
