@CheaperJeeperTV Жыл бұрын
I believe that the engineers at AEV determined that for a 2” lift, the shocks spacer brackets and spring spacers will be good enough. Plus they included longer sway bar links. It rides nicely. I did go off road a few times and enjoyed having the lift and larger tires.

What kind of mpg are you getting now that you’ve lifted your jeep and put the larger tires on? I saw in a previous video that you we’re getting around 25mpg with stock tires.

Hey Joe, With the larger tires, on the highway, which is where most of my milage is accumulated, I am seeing anywhere from 10.5 to 11.5 L/100km, which is between 22-20 mpg US gallons, or 26.9 50 24.5 mpg CAN gallons.

Question on the subscriber tip: Does that mean adding 33" tires without a lift gives the Jeep a lift of 1.5" automatically?
@CheaperJeeperTV3 жыл бұрын
If you had tires that were exactly 31", and you swap them out for tires that are exactly 33", then when mounted on the axle, that 3" difference is divided to 1.5" upwards into the wheel well, and the other 1.5" below the axle, lifting the jeeps lowest point of contact 1.5". I hope that helps.

@@CheaperJeeperTV Not all 31" and 33" tires are 31" and 33". After measuring my ride, I did get about 1.5" of lift. I guess the 31's were a little on the small side, and the 33's a little big.
@LizardBoy0073 жыл бұрын
Going from 31" to 33" is a 1" lift, not a 1.5" lift. Think about it: the axle is only 1" higher than it was before because the 2" difference is split between below the axle and above the axle. As stated above, the *actual* size of the tires matter.
