[QUOTE="jjvw, post: 421647, member: 17013"] I think you are missing the point of the original question. How does one build up a JK in such a way as to maximize and balance the tire size, suspension travel, suspension performance, belly height, frame height, etc. I described this in some detail for a well built TJ that maintains the factory axles and wheelbase - something I am quite familiar with, FWiW. What does this look like for a well built JK? The answer to this question is going to involve a tape measure and a welder. And if longer than stock arms are a part of the equation, there better be some grasp of instant centers, how they affect the suspension's behavior and why that matters. [/QUOTE]
