Okay so my stock suspension is going so i decided to buy a lift kit (preferably 4") but i know there are rules and regulations on them but I don't know what this means or how to find out if i am able to even lift my 07 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara:
"20.13 In the case of any truck or multi-purpose passenger vehicle with a gross vehicle weight of 4500 k. or less, the following shall apply:
Raised Vehicle: The front tread width divided by the sum of the frame height at its highest point, and any body lift shall not be less than 1.80 for vehicles with wheelbase of 254 cm. (100 in.) or more and not less than 2.00 for vehicles with a wheelbase of less than 254 cm. (100 in.). (TJ = 93.4 in)
Lowered Vehicle: No part of the chassis or the steering components of the vehicle shall extend below the rim of the wheel or come in contact with the road surface if all four tires are flat.
Fig. 39-8. Tread width is distance between centre points of left tire tread and right tire tread. Measurements are taken from frame centre line to centre of tire in each case to establish correct frame-to-wheels relationship."
Someone with a little bit of experience please help cause this is my DD and I don't want tickets. I would rather do it right the first time than get tickets. If it comes down to not being able to lift it then I guess ill stick with stock (I think I can because I see tons of lifted truck and Jeep wranglers all around Winnipeg that have bigger lifts than 4")
Thanks
