I talked to outkast and they are in testing and told me that the price should be the same as the ranger lifts

Did they say about when it would be out? Catvos makes a good lift but $1500 is hard to swallow . especially if theres a comparable lift for cheaper
You guys running 29.5" and taller tires, how does it do spinning them, I'm not talking about barely putting around? How does it handle them climbing and in thick mud? Any struggle?
Couldn't tell you. Can not fit my 31 outlaws on yet. Waiting on a lift that's not crazy expensive. If there us such a thing.
They didn't say. I figure about a month or 2. I may opt instead for portals. The gears seem a tad too tall for me especially reverse.

Won't have any info on the 31's. The guy I was buying them from sold the tires out from under me. I'm pissed.
That Sucks. I hate when people do that. I'm either going to go with catvos or outkast lift. Sounds like highlifter is going to have there suspension lift out for awhile. Tired of waiting.

@aquatic1998 I am running the Strong Made 2-3" lift it is $162.00, today I mounted 30x10x14 STI Roctane XD tires that are 30.4 inches in diameter. The only rubbing I have is from the UHMW skid plate that protruded 2" into the OEM front wheel well. The Outlaw 31" tire is just over 30" like my tires according to other pictures etc. This may be an affordable option for you. I now have 16" of ground clearance after the lift and tires. Detailed pictures are on the last page of my build thread below in my signature.

Well, I found another set of 31's and just put them on. Yep. They rub on drivers side at full turn. I even heated the plastic up with a heat gun and tried rolling it back. If you want bigger than 30" tires, don't waste your money on a stronghold lift.
Thanks for the update I almost tried it. I guess it's a catvos or outkast for me.

I would agree on that. I got my trail armor UHMW skids trimmed back and my Roctanes are 30.4" and they too rub ever so slightly at full lock on drivers side only. That is with the machine leaning in a robust left turn. I have a heat gun that goes to 800 degrees and will push back that protruding corner its only an inch or two wide where it touches, moving it in 1 inch will make all the difference in the world.
As it is now I would say 29" tires are the largest you can safely fit using the Strong Made Lift without any modifications, other than that if you ran 4+3 offset that would clear as I am running 6+1 offset, but note a 4+3 offset will put you at 67-68" wide in the front. Hope that helps people make the right choices with that lift kit.
Does anyone know how to order the catvos lift, its not available on there website, I tried calling twice and no answer or return call . Makes me think I should think about going a different route . If its this hard to order one , can't imagine how hard its going to be if I ever have a problem with one.
