Default Ordered my lift today!

Fabtech 2.5 inch. Supposedly its adjustable so I can be set from 1-3 inches or something like that. I also ordered 33x12.50 Pro Comp All Terrain tires and 16 inch Black Dick Cepek DC1's. I'm dropping the Rubi off on Tues and will be getting it back on Wed. I can't wait!

you will need a gear ratiochange. are they doing that for you? if they are not, you will notice and you will get it done. the parts are about $200 per axle plus installation, which should be about 6-8 hours total.

They said everything would be done when I bring it in on Tuesday and that it would be ready for the highway or the trails or where ever elseI may take it, but they never mentioned anything about gear ratio change. What do I need specifically for this? Could you post a link for good parts or a kit? Its for a 2005 Rubicon with stock 4.10's . Thanks

i didnt realize that the Rubi came with 4.11 gears. you might not have to go with taller gears. i would see how it is when you get it back. you should be fine.

when i lifted my 4.0 wrangler 4 inches and went with 33's i had to change gears, but mine came with 3.08's. sorry for the confusion.

good stuff here http://www.4wheelparts.com/
