Default Rough Country 2.5" coil/spring lift comparison pics

Ok, so a little while back I posted some before and after pics of my jeep but they didnt really show the lift difference as they were different angle's etc etc.

Today in a carpark I was next to a brand new 2dr sahara, which is exactly the same as mine, here are a couple of pics to try show the height difference, the pics are bad quality as its humid as a bitch and from a poor phone camera, but you get the idea.






check the height difference in the mirror's


"

Im thinking of getting a 1.25" body lift aswell from rough country, do you guys think its worth getting?

I think it would look sick adding a body lift... i've seen pictures of rc 2.5 lifts with 1.25 body lifts and they look good.

You read my mind exactly , thats what im going to do next. Im just wondering whether to go with the RC 1.25" body lift or to go with a 1" body lift

Then im going to add 1.5" wheel spacers and stick with my stock 32" tyres until they wear out, or if I get bored, just get new tyres on the stock rims

I want you to get it so I can see how it would look on mine. Selfish motives, but I've always enjoyed spending other peoples money. I wonder if it would eliminate the rubbing at "extreme articulation" with 35's?

I think it will look really good, there's pics of a yellow jeep that has it done, and it looks great. Also with my jeep being black I dont think you will be able to see the gap between body and frame which you end up with..

As I understand.... nothing needs to be extended, because it is only the body which is being lifted, nothing else will move. correct me if im wrong, but thats how I understand it.

search body lift in advanced options, only threads starting with..... and you will get a whole bunch of threads about the body lift.
