Good day all! I have just purchased a 2003 Rubicon. It has lived in Modesto, CA its entire life with three owners. 71,000 miles.
The current owner bought it about a year ago and does not have a ton of knowledge of the upgrades. I won’t pick it up until Tuesday but thought I’d throw some pictures to see if anyone can help to identify what’s on it now.
It needs tires as they are starting to dry rot slightly. They are 33’s currently, trying to weigh if I can jump up to 35” or just keep it as is.
It is an automatic.
4.88 gears were installed in 2005
The driveshaft is not original, has a label on it. (No pcture)
I know it was built to run the Rubicon and did so a couple of times.
It has a 5 point belt for the driver
Transmission has a temp gauge
It is not a long arm and the top of the front shock mounts say JKS.
Shocks are bilstein, they are likely almost 20 years old now so…
Any of you see what I have here? I don’t believe I have enough lift to get to 35” tires. I didn’t check the brakes, but it looks like the original build was pretty solid.
I believe the baseline upgrades (maybe minus brakes) are all done, and I think I see a body lift (drivers side rear wheel well pic), but do I have enough lift to get into a 35?
