Hi Guys,
I have a tj with a 4" lift and am wanting some new tyres.
At the moment it has a set of mtr's with 4.11 diff gears.
I have a set of brand new 35x11.5x16 simex centipeded from my patrol but have been told if i fit them up I will break axles etc on the jeep.
Other tyres Im considering are the 33x12.5 swamper or a 33 " centipede, possibly a 33"claw.
If i go the 35" tyres how much more lift will i need to make these tyres fit. will a 1.25 boddy lift do the trick

Gone to the Dark Side
I've just bought some 4.11's from wooders for my TJ to run my 31's a bit more comfortably. Some say that 4.56 is perfect for 33's.gqmad wrote:thanks guys,
so how much body lift do i need. will i get away with a 1.25" lift or do i need 2" on the body
on top of that will i need to replace my diff gears from 4.11 to something like 4.88 or 4.5
all advice appreciated
Remember that aussie TJ's came with 3.07's so 4.11's are gonna be better but i've got 2 or 3 mates with 4.56's in theirs with 33's and love it but one mate has just gone up to 35's with his 4.56's and is happy to stay there for a while.
cheers
PS, nissans are boring, i used to own one *shudders*
My TJ's been running 35" muddies since 1999. and I often swap over to 36" TSLs for playing. (since about 2004).
During that time I have bent 1 rear stock axle and broken one front uni (which took out the shafts). I now have bent the front housing - but not enough to make it undrivable.
The only changes I have made are lockers and lower diff ratios - heck I still run stock shafts. But now there are a LOT of upgrades so it can be beefed if you want (I had new axles so didn't care).
Dunno if these pics help my case - but think it shows the abuse fairly well
