Default Question on lift??

Hello everyone,

I got a question. I recently bought a 2012 jeep unlimited auto, i wanted to do a 4 inch lift and run 18" procomp wheels with toyo mt's 35". I the dealer has a procomp 4" lift in stock and is offering to install free. Does anyone else have this set up? And how does it ride?

Dude if it's free, go for it. I am betting that most suspension lift brands are not gonna break on a DD so reliability is probably not an issue. You might want to check out getting a new gear ratio. I have a 2-door sport with 5" and 35s. I'm looking into 4.88s or 5.13s which looks like everyone else on here is saying is what they run on 2door/4door. Here's a nice table that would help you with ratios:




THAT DEALER IS OUT OF HIS MIND or is just a nice guy

I've had a procomp 4" lift on my 2012 2Dr with 33's for about 6000kms now with no problems.

Im still paying for the lift, but just the install is free. They will figure out a way to screw me somehow.

What about highway driving if anyone has any input?
