HELP! have searched but cant get a definite answer

[NJallDAY]

I'm getting pretty tired of "users" that come on here to get their one question answered and then complain about the answers they get, or how much they want to get rid of their Liberty....especially ones that think the wrangler is indestructible and so far above the Liberty. I have nothing against wranglers, I would never own a JK, but a TJ or earlier would be sweet...in addition to my KJ, not instead of it. But as was said, regardless of what you drive, the second you leave that pavement you're opening yourself up to problems and issues. Just something you need to accept. When you drive off road, it's not a repair, it's maintenance.

And btw, there's plenty of mods, you just need to look and be creative...or you can go replicate one of the million mallcrawler wranglers already on the street.

My buddy financed a brand new wrangler back in 2009 and took it out in the woods twice before it was totally muffed up. Sheered a shock mount off destroyed the hub on the same side and then hydro locked it on the way out of the trails. Now its up for debate on if it was the jeep or his driving. Most of the trails here in jersey are nothing to crazy. Long story short i wouldnt trade my kj in for any other jeep. Aside from the lack of storage space this thing has to be best compromise of comfort and ability.

i just dont trust this cv axle shit and when i say took it on a trail i mean a dirt road with a couple pot holes my xj and tj were awesome i understand things break in the woods but a warranty is always nice to have.

As bad as my back is I will only ride short distances in my friends built TJ. My KJ goes every where that his does and I don't feel like I've been jumped on. I think that you probably need to get a wrangler so you can gripe about it.

Warranties don't cover off-road use.

Warranties don't cover stupid though
meaning ,...................if you do something dumb and something you shouldn't be doing then guess what you are out of luck.
Also depends on the dealer at times but .............
CVs are good as long as you don't "try" and break them

well it looks like im keeping this thing, do they make HD CV's? ill wait till i put on 2nd class to get the wrangler im just still kicking myself in the ass for getting rid of it, hindsight is 20/20 but i mid as well have some fun with this thing while i have it, im about to order new tires im read on here that i can run a 245/70/16 with no lift but ive also read that with suspension sag they would rub i think this is still factory stuff think they would work or should i stick with the 225/75/16 or go with the 235/70's ive heard they are smaller?

 

[tommudd]

measure middle of wheel in front to bottom of flare, see how much you've sagged then we can give you a better idea
245-70s should work although they will rub some ( more if sagged a lot) when fully turned left or right
No HD CVs

i was just looking at them at full lock another couple inches and my 225's will rub i may just stick with the 225's unless the 235's are the same height because i would like more width
