Unlimited on 37x13.50's w/Pictures!
Hey guys. New to the forum and Jeep world. Finished the lift/wheels/tires on my 07 Sahara last night. Pretty simple install and great ride quality out of the 4" Zone Offroad kit. Minimal scrubbing. Easily fixed by simple cutting. 6 speed on stock 3:73 gears is easily drivable. Of course it's slow but they aren't built for speed to begin with. Here are some quick pictures.

Looks good. Please say you did not install the cam-bolts specially if you go off road. If they are in, keep your eye on them and check torque. It's a good idea to add C-gussets on the front axel too. Last, mind the front drive shaft. Some but not all, have issues with that much lift. Don't forget to wave.

Welcome, good job on the installation.
Good to see that you've knocked out just about all of the work, but I'd still suggest some sort of tire carrier for daily driving, everything else should be fine.
However, you've still got quite a bit of work left to do if you plan to take it off road. I'd still suggest a tire carrier first.

Yeah I've still got a long ways to go. I graduate college in December so maybe my jeep fund will start to increase then and I can afford tire carrier and other goodies. Not my daily driver so it will get very few miles. Also, make fun if you'd like but I've saved my money form a long time to afford this Jeep so no off-roading much for me. I don't have the disposable income it takes to afford a wicked rig!

Does your lift squeak at all? Mine does pretty bad when I turn and go over speed bumps. Got to figure out where it's coming from. Drives me nuts ha.
