She's going to sh1t herself when she see's its another inch higher with the tyres plus (hopefully) a couple more when the poly kit goes in.

So now the Jeep is just the weekender. Got myself a little runabout for doing the footy dad & work thing. So now I don't give two hoots about how high it is etc.

If I'd intended from the outset to have it as a weekender then I would have done it differently. Now just have to find someone to buy my OME stuff. Going to keep the KM2's for spares on the stock rims.
Your stuff is on its way!!!!

Not sure if this is something to worry about though, look how close the tyre is to the Rubi slider and that's not square with the widest point of the tyre. Sure it will be OK once it's up another inch or two.
Nope - the lift won't help you there.....adjustable control arms will allow you to move the axle back an inch or so in order to avoid the conflict.

The tyre clearance is one of the things BlackJack Welding address with their Rubi slider mod.

Have a look here

If the front bar is in the way a stubby might be in order..... I am sure the current one wont be hard to get rid of

Put some Procoms on with 5" backspace 16 inch rims.
Pushes the tire a tad past the guards.
