Rancho 4" Sport Lift Rebate
#52
I'm running the 4" Sport Lift and 35" Duratrac on Black Rhino Wheels. I noticed a bit of fender rubbing under articulation and turning. i.e. rock crawling.
I have stock painted fenders, and no I don't want to trim them or replace them just yet...
Is anyone running additional bump stops to prevent fender rubbing? If so, what kind and how much more bump stop needed for 35"?

Keep/make a copy for your records as well.
It is taking closer to the 8-10 weeks these days, as we near the end of the rebate, FYI.

Required tools
I actually ordered the Crawler system for my 2012 rubi and it just came in. The question i have for anyone that has installed this kit before is what size socket and combination wrenches do i actually need? I don't want to start pulling parts off my daily driver to realize i am missing tools that i need to complete the Job. the instructions only say 1/2” Drive Ratchet and Sockets, Combination Wrenches. Can anyone give me any help?

I know I used sockets up to 21 mm. 19 and 14 were popular. I'm assuming the Rubi and Sport have mostly the same bolts and I have a 3" trail but its mostly the same parts. Control arms, track, sway, shocks and what not. Other than that there were some standard 9/16 and 1/2 stuff in the kit. It would have been nice to have metric wrenches up to 21 mm but my c wrench covered.
Maybe someone else has done an install closer to your kit but that should get you started. You can also check your tools against the bolts you need to remove and those in your kit.
