Finally got to take The Bandit on a real off-road adventure to the desert! She did amazing! Didn’t do anything too crazy but saw some rocks, sand, gravel, climbs and a littttttle bit of water. IT. WAS. AWESOME!
I was wondering the same thing about just how much of a visual difference the lift would make and didn't really know until I saw it in person. My opinion, is it's a game-changer and feels much higher and bigger than stock, even more than I would have thought. It looks super tough. However, it's...
Hey @SurfRunner - I had the same thought on wheels and lift.
Black ORP with Bronze Method 703's and the Westcott lift.
Everyone has their own preference of course, but I LOVE that black on bronze look.
Ground to roof is 6 feet (~187 cm) and the roof to top roof rack rail is about 5 inches (~13cm)…so just under 2 meters. Roughly. Cutting it close but hope that helps.
No rubbing. I had it done at a shop and they did some minor trimming but not anything I can really even notice.
The 1:30 mark on this video describes what needs to be done with the same wheels, lift and tires. It’s minor.

Do you have any other pics you’d be willing to upload? Looks awesome! I’m thinking about the same set up but haven’t seen many Westcott lifts on 33s. Thanks !
