I have a 2007 4-door Wrangler, manual transmission with a 3" suspension lift. Am I still good to tow a 2000lb pop camper or does the lift mess things up?
Thanks

 

What gears? Friend of mine towed my 2000-2500 lb boat/trailer 650 miles to me with his 2007 with 3" TF lift, 35's and 3.21 manual.

 

Do you have a tire size other than stock? And are your axles still stock?

 

Do you have 3.21 or 4.10 gears?
3.21 = 1000 lbs. tow rating.

I wouldn't say the lift messes things up for you, but it should make you a lot more careful, especially when towing.

 

Tire size went up to 33 from 31, axles are stock and gears havent changed either

 

Stock gears, but that could be 3.21 or 4.10.

 

It will be more gutless than normal. 2k behind a 4door, even with stock gearing, shouldn't be a problem. (w/ a tranny cooler for the autos, of course)

I wonder if that 1,000 lb limit on 3.21's is just because they don't have the tow package? So assuming he has a class 2 or better hitch and wiring and all, should be good to go?

 

The 1000 lb tow rating has to assume a tow package because it's giving a rating for towing. Can't tow without a tow package, which is just a hitch and wiring on the early models.

 

Yeah, I was thinking about people with other bumpers just slapping a ball into the hole in the bumper, or a JK slapping a class 1 hitch on, rather than using a beefier frame mount.

I just can't see a 2500 lb difference simply because you have 3.21 vs 3.73.

 

I pull a fully loaded pop up all summer long and have for the last 4 years. I average about 2500 lbs and I have a 4 dr Rubi with 4.10's, 35" Toyos and a 2.5" lift. No issues what so ever!
