You really nailed it [emoji108][emoji108][emoji108] how is the ride now?

Super easy install. The only hard part was the nut and washer for the front bump stops. They were a bitch.

Looks awesome Steve! That 8 speed tranny is the bomb, isn't it? Doesn't even notice the larger tires.

It’s amazing how easily it moves these tires compared to my 3.8 and 35’s when I was on stock gears. Not sure I will need to regear this for a long time.

Rides amazing! Little softer than stock which is nice. The rear is a little stiff currently but that’s because I still don’t have the carrier or spare on yet.

Looks great. What size lift again? And how much did you actually gain? Stance looks perfect with 37s.

So I have had the Evo JL HD tire carrier laying around in my apartment with the spare tire for about a month and a half. Finally got to taking the carrier to work and assembling it while I was slow to get me to get it installed on ruth.

Well here it is! Used Cindy and Eddies video as reference for the install. I highly recommend having a second set of hands like Eddie mentioned for this install. Also if your going to be mounting a 37” tire then use both shims from the get go.

Lol it’s fun looking out the camera when driving and seeing the wheel

If I had to critique this carrier it’s that you can’t mount the tire any lower than the highest set of holes. If you try and mount it in the middle or the lowest set there is no hole to run wiring thru for the camera. It isn’t bad to see out the back but I’m sure morgan would like it lower since it’s her daily

Looks good. Glad you had time to get it done.

You can cut the "snout" off the factory carrier and put it back on to protect the camera, instead of having it exposed to damage, if you like.

I have a post on it somewhere, if you want I can dig it up.
