CJ - 5

awesome Thank You,

would 31 10.50's still be ok or would you jump up to something bigger?

I had a 2.5 lift on a 2000 TJ and rolled 33's. They rubbed with stock rims, but I bought 15x10 black wagon wheel deep dish off sets and never had any clearance issues.

I could be wrong, but I think 2.5" is the limit for a lift without extra parts like longer sway bars etc.

CJ5's never had sway bars from the factory. CJ7's did. you can take a swaybar from a 7 and install it on a 5 if you wish.

and yes, 31's should fit fine with a 2.5" lift. I had 30's on a cj5 with no lift, as it came from the factory that way.

lol its spends most its time on jack stands in the front yard. I even get to drive it sometimes. and when I do.. its fantastic.

That's the jeep experience. I miss it...






























About one day every spring.

You'll be fine with that lift as long as you don't forget to put on your knee-pads before climbing in that bitch.

I had an '82 CJ5 with a 4" lift and a spring flop on 39x19 Mickey Thompsons and a nicely done 327 chevy with a turbo 400 transmission and DANA 44 axles...major roll cage work and racing seats with 5 point harnesses...

piss yellow with a blue stripe...some used to pick and call it the "sunbeam machine" (as in sunbeam bread truck LOL)

was fun until I had to grow up, get married and have kids
