How so? They don't make awesome jeeps like mine anymore. "Did" implies past tense; I don't speak the queen's english

Yeah, well, mine has them and it's pretty bad ass.

We're debating getting rid of the old nag. Australia did it and if those convicts can so can we.

I will concede and agree with "do".

And it's 'bout damn time. I don't see any canucks sippin' tea and eating crumpets.

 

[ptsb5a]

Um, what's a crumpet? Sounds ****.

It seems to me that when moving to an SFA you need to think about some things. Its all about comprimise. How big a tire can you get while keeping the vehicles center of gravity as LOW as possible??? Maybe SFA people should work around a 35" tire??? Kep the suspension as low as reasonable for that tire.

Some sort of pastry....

Neatus centered his around a 33" tire.

I swear to you all, the next rene I see being driven by a Mall crawling mom...I'm following her shopping so i can take off the skids and give them a proper home while she's shopping.

That seems to be the case here too. Plenty of KJs even some lifted and one with an ARB (not me, yet), but it seems as if all the Renegades are driven by women.

Jeep marketers are geniuses. Look how many people still can't get that Renegade is an appearance package... Granted it was a fine appearance package (on the '05 and newers especially) but nonetheless... Skids were optional on them, just like on the others.

The downside,IMHO, of all SFA KJ's is how high you have to lift them to fit a mid-sized tire. They already have a pretty high roof line and then you have to put them 19' in the air to run 33's ( most common) or 35's at the max on them. You have to lift the crap out of XJ's to get decent tires,too, but at least their cramped quarters keeps the roofline lower.

Yep to install 32/33s on a XJ you have to jack them quite a bit, but then the roof line is still lower than say what mine is ??!!!!
I want to do a SFA with 40s, front axle moved ahead 3 to 5 inches, rear moved back 5 also. Full width axles of course.
I'll have wildman do some minor trimming for me nono.gif
If you're going to do it go way big

 

[JeepOwner07]

Not to be rude but.................

5" of lift to fit 35" tires on a XJ.................

Granted some cutting required


Now the XJ is already a SFA rig which makes it easier to keep lower and add bigger tires.The KJ was never designed for a SFA,it's like trying to fit 100lbs of s**t in a 5lbs bag,I'm not joking either.I takes alot of work to get everything under there and work correctly,which means it does have to go higher then what I would like but 9" is the minimum,tried for 6"-7" but that was not going to happen.

Yeah, both are rectangular and have writing on them...close enough for a pittsburghian, I guess....
