Call Turner Cycles in Humble Tx. and get his heavy u joint for it. Lift and more tire eats factory u joints on these bikes. |

How big are you looking to go with your tires? I'm running 26's on mine with no lift. And could probably go bigger. |

I put an Xtreme lift on my rubicon and it was around 100 bucks and i installed it myself. Not hard to do and make the stance of the bike look good. |

X2 on 2inch xtreme lift, 29.5s but you have to trim the plastic where your feet go behind the pegs, vision wheels (the bead crush is twice as much then any others), but you should be ok with out triming anything if you go 28s. Had the same on mine 2inch 29.5s outlaws vivion wheels (black) |

If you want it to look clean put IFS wheels all the way around, deep dishes on the back (IRS wheels) look retarted to me on the back and shallow wheels on the front, the 2" lift will look good with 28's and you can run your stock U-Joints they are very strong, If anything breaks its gonna be the axles before anything. Been through plenty of axles, never a u-joint. |

i'm looking to go with probably some 28s. I don't dawg my bike at all, just the factory tires have left me in the field b4 by the goose blind. I'm just looking to go wherever on the property w/o having to hang on the levees. Will I have to put a lift with the 28s and also should I go ahead and change my axels / ujoints? |

If thats all your gonna do with it i would just go with some more aggressive 26s and save yourself the trouble of breaking stuff like axles and u joints. |
