I recently made this rear bar for her to keep rear safe in the bush and put a rear carrier on later down the track and put on side steps from a wrangler. But unfortunatly I am needed to sell her as im not using it enough i feel. What price do you guys think would be a good price once i clean her up?
2006, 5.7L hemi, 130k kms, superlift from the states, uneek front bar (winch and lights and all), also got the stock rear bar, and 34's (also got those stock chrome wheels), put new slotted and dotted rotors all round. Spent easy 10k on her since I brought it. So what do you guys think would be a good price to start with?

Hard to put a price on the Hemi's as many people are shy of them due to fuel consumption but find a price you'd be happy with that sits in the market (look across carsales for all WH's), you only need one buyer but they can be hard to find for a car at the pointy end of the modified scale.

Can I jump in here?

I have a 2" lift on my WH (clearly since my profile pic!) and I was wondering about using my stock 17" rims with Goodyear Wrangler 245 75's, or 255 70's. There's a few sets of tyres for sale off JK's who's owners have upped tyre size.

Will I have any issues with fitment on either size?

Cheers,

Rob.

I have seen some of the yanks putting on 265/70/17 with 2 inch lift on jk wheels, If you do the front pinch weld with a hammer you can really fit some decent sie rubber under them on some of the american stuff you might come across Omelet's build thread he had 295/70/17 on only 3 inch's of lift and a little rubbing, I'm running 35's on 4 inchs of lift with slight rubbing. So with either of those tyre sizes you're talking about im sure you'll be fine with a 2 inch lift I think a lot of people do like the 265/70/17 option.

I used to run Wrangler 245/75/17 (31.5") take off's on stock WH rims with 2" lift and pinch weld mod. Only rubbed on full lock


This is 265/70/17's on Commander rims (same back spacing and offset as Moabs) on the same lift.
