Any Jeep guys? Need advice

My brother picked up a ‘18 Sahara 4 door wrangler. Wants a 1.5-2” lift. I don’t know much about these and he’s not a car guy. Money isn’t really an issue. Wants something that’ll drive nice. He will only wheel it maybe 3-4x’s a year and it’ll be weenie shit.

I traded my 2012 unlimited sport for my crewmax. I ran the rough country 2.5" series II lift, with dual steering stabilizers. I ran 37s on stock wheels. Rode great. Miss it, but I needed bigger.

 

I’ve done Fabtech kits and have liked them.

 

He says 2.5” is too much lol. He doesn’t want to do the mopar kit cause he says most report it actually lifts 3”

 

There aren’t a whole lot of really small actual lift kits. He would probably be happy with a leveling kit raising the front.
Or just throw big tires on it, and that will lift it higher. I run 35s with no lift, and have gone as big as 38s with no lift (but I don’t recommend the latter).

 

Flat fenders and 35s, no lift

 

I ran AEV on 2 jeeps. They are a little pricey but quality lifts.

 

He wants to run 35’s. I told him to nut up and do a man lift

 

35s don’t require lift.

 

37’s on 4.5” lift and could have gone bigger.

 

38s. 0 lift. Flat fenders

 

I really loved my 36s on a 3” lift.
But obviously was a 2dr

 

I have a 18 sport if you add the rubicon springs/shocks you will get 1-2” I got 1.75” on my sport.

 

thanks for the help guys!

 

Tell him to squeeze some 35’s on the stock suspension and re-gear it. Save the money from the lift for gears.
