Finally installed TF 3" lift and KM2 tires... Now it looks like a Jeep
Well after months of buying parts one at a time I finally got the lift and 35's put on over the easter weekend. Big thanks to my dad for providing the garage/air tools, and free labor, that made it pretty easy. Had 3" Teraflex coils for the front and 2.5" spacer for the rear, shock extensions, quick disconnects, and JKS front adjustable trac bar. Love the look, love the tire and wheel combo, feels good when a plan comes together.
My superchips is being delivered today so I'll contribute my
on it performance wise but just with the 35's and 4:10 automatic it was definitely driveable and gear searching and downshifts were only more frequent above 65 on the interstate.

Are you running without the spare on the back for now? I'm getting ready to install my lift and 35's and trying to figure out what I'm going to do with my spare until I have the cash for a rear tire carrier. I guess I'll just take it off for daily driving and keep it in the back when off road.

Looking really good! I love the wheel and tire combo!
Oh and read your sig. I think the stubby front bumper mod would look great with this set up.
Rough country just came out with a kit for it if youre worried about doing it yourself.

Yea I'm running with no spare right now... Had to take off the stock spare it just didn't look right with the 35's and would be mostly useless if actually needed. Haven't even bought the matching spare yet but should have it ordered this week but then will have to wait on the funds for a carrier, been putting this together piece by piece the whole time so why stop now 
I'll probably carry it in the back for a while as well. To fill the tailgate holes after removing the stock carrier I just put all the bolts back in and only needed two plastic plugs from napa ($1.50) to put where the two spacers were between the tailgate and the tire itself
