I've taken mine. it needs ALOT of lift to clear. 6.5" is a decent size for that length. also, remember to get a bumper that's tucked up high in the rear, and forget carrying a spare tire under there. build protective skids in the back there and you won't have to worry about it much. just watch your wheeling and make sure you can clear it.

Pete M Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 A custom bumper (raised up higher than stock) and rocker protection will go a long ways towards protecting your sheetmetal. :cheers: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pingpong Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 I abused a LWB Mj for a few yrs before I truggied it. Key to wheeling it is strong rock rails... and a srtong rear bumper with side protection. Even with that being said, It is still possible to bash sheetmetal :brows: IF you Don't have one, you might want to armor your gas tank as well.

possum Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 I wheel my long bed and love it. It is down for the count with a siezed caliper right now. The back bumper does drag sometimes though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
