I am looking at getting a TF 2.5" BB with 285x70 17 KM2 and stock wheels.

My question is, do I need wheel spacers. I did some research and read that If you plan on disconnecting your sway bar then you need wheel spacers. Well I dont plan on disconnecting my sway bar and plan on dueing just mild offroad.
So do I need wheel spacers. Also what about the FT 2" BB, would i need spacers for that lift or not..Thanks

YOu should be fine without wheel spacers and mild offroading. I ran the TF BB for a few months. Warning: you will find out that this Jeep thing is addicting and more and more parts will soon follow!

Without disconnecting your front swaybar you "should" be fine. However, it won't be long before you realize that a simple disconnect will allow your Jeep to keep it's tires on the ground for better traction. It is fine to go through this process is stages. Many folks do go through a process as they become more experienced they make changes that suite their particular needs. When you want to disconnect your swaybar easily I recommend this simple solution. This link is a very inexpensive way to accomplish this task.

What would be recomended for spacers, 1", 1.25" or 1.50" I am putting on 285x70 17 on stock wheels. 6.5" backspacing and I dont want to stick out past the stock fenders more then an inch or less. Thanks

1.50 it looks good even with the stock M/T's

1.5" spacers should put you 3/4" to 1" outside the flares, that is what I stick out with my 4" BS wheels and 285's.
