I'll be getting this installed in the next couple days. More a leveling kit than a lift kit but the package could give you an idea of wheel specs that fit. https://jsportusa.com/product/jsport-passport-pre-run-package/

Are you having it installed at your dealer? Let me know your thoughts after the install. I’m considering the same.

There’s a “custom truck” place nearby that’s basically part of a Jeep - Dodge dealer that lifts Jeeps and Rams mostly that I’m having do the install. Most places with the right tools could probably handle it. I just feel most comfortable with these guys. Should be able to pick it up tomorrow and will try to get back with thoughts and pictures.

Look forward to your pics bhertz

It’s all done. I’m enjoying the look and the ride is as good as ever. Haven’t hit any bumps yet but otherwise feels much the same if not better. I didn’t take any before measurements but the center of the fender well measurement in the front is about 34” from the ground and the rear is about 34 3/4” from the ground. Now for the pictures:

bhertz82. The wheels and tires look great. For reference, the same measurements on my stock Elite are approximately 32 3/4 and 33 1/4. I assume entry and exit from the vehicle are fine without the side steps.

Thank you for the reference!
Before the leveling kit I would have never bothered using the side step. Now I may use it once in a while on entry but certainly easy enough to step around on entry and exit. My 5 year old daughter definitely uses it though.

Pix look great. Just to confirm, you had the Jsport leveling kit installed, correct?

I ask because Jsport isn't the only game in town...

Yea, the Jsport leveling kit is included in the Pre-Run Package so that's what I had installed. Great to know there's competition though and traxda looks to have some great versatility in their selections.

Looks great. Are those LaminX taillight tint covers?

Thanks.

It’s a permanent spray on tinting/smoking that I got done at the place I get my window tint done. Looks pretty blacked out but light shines through plenty.

Speaking of lift kits, here’s the PP with its older brother (my first adventure into vehicle modding) with 20” wheels and 35” tires. May wanna go with some 18s on that sometime in the future too. #killallthechromethings
