I wanna run 35s, how much lift do I need?

[YamahamikeZ]

I got. A 12 rubicon I want to run 35s should I get 3.5 or 4 inch lift and what else driveshafts?

Regear if you don't have at least 4.10's, a front driveshaft for sure. Speedometer recalibration is necessary.

It has 4.10s sense it’s a rubicon any recommendations on driveshafts

Also I found a good deal on a pro charger does anyone have experience with those or any idea what tuning solutions

I heard Adams driveshaft is a good place to get them.

So, are you thinking you need an additional 3.5 - 4" to get the 35s under the Jeep? I don't think a lift is necessary to fit the 35s on a Rubi.
Any lift over 2.5" will need adjustable control arms and track bars in addition to the driveshafts.

Agreed, most 2.5” lifts will fit 35”. Above 2.5” lift other items need to be upgraded. Not all Rubicons have 4.10’s. Automatics have 3.73, the 4.10 is an upgrade option. The 6sp manual has 4.10 as stock.

I have 35s on a 2.5" lift on a Sahara, and doesn't the Rubi have a couple extra inches of spring lift over the Sahara and Sport?

I beleive on the JK’s they are all the same except for the Recon edition which I think has an extra 1” of height. I believe the JL Rubis have different fenders to allow for an extra 1“ or 2” of travel / larger tires.

I’m running 35’s on my 2011 Sahara unlimited with 2.5 lift and 2” wheel spacers, no issues with rubbing at full flex

2 1/2" lift, flat fenders and you can flex 35" tires with 4.5" backspace wheels.
