I have a JEEP/JK/2DR/2012 No Lift. I am wondering if this will clear steep driveways and not bottom out on moderate offroading?

Good question! I doubt it. My bet it will drag. But u could get a hitch with a rise on it say 3 inches that may help though it could inter fear with spare tire at that point.

I have this on my Subaru outback, your jeep is probably higher than an outback. On my outback it will scrape some times, and if i hit a driveway hard it scrapes.

Hard to answer but it does set exactly even with the tow hitch if that helps at all.

The ground clearance is not significantly affected, however the effective length of the vehicle is extended. You could test that by placing a yardstick directly behind your trailer hitch.

I have a 2013 2dr no lift and have had no problems. You would have to have a really extreme angle for the carrier to drag.

I have a 2013 Jeep Rubicon. I installed the 3' firestick antenna about 2 years ago. Use off road all the time, works great. The taller the antenna, the more range but 3' is above the roof and works just fine for me. Also need to consider when off roading the taller antenna will often hit overhanging brush and trees. Hope this is helpful for you.

My driveway also slopes up here in the Colorado foothills. Although I have used this machine only once last week, it did perform well working uphill. That said, it did struggle a bit when running into compacted snow after a car had driven up and down the driveway. So it is best to use it on fresh snow, before any vehicle drives over it.

well the top will but the bottom part is still as low as a regular one. we use it on atv's and that helps going over rough terrain not hooking on to brush and stuff. hope this will help.

I have a dirt driveway. Not gravel but certainly not paved either. My 1800 Power Curve has not been a problem. I have learned where specific embedded non-removable rocks are and have learned to avoid them easily enough. Hope that helps.

Yes I used this on my 2008 FJ 2 wheel drive to lift the front end. It was on the second ring I believe.

I have used mine in all snow levels and conditions and it work great. I adjusted the height so it can clear snow all the way down to the concrete. When clearing 1"-2" of snow I basically use it like a plow.

The auger does not assist and on a steep drive with 6 to 8 inches of snow you may have some difficulty going uphill. A self propelled unit would be better. The size of your drive may also factor into this. I would say that of all the electric blowers I looked at both online and in stores that this is a good choice. For drives or walk s that are long or inclined then self powered would be a better choice. Hope this helps some in you making your decision.

I use mine to lift a Polaris Sportsman 500 ATV. Because it's so high off the ground, I use 4x4's along with ratchet straps. Not sure I'd get under it without someone spotting from above, but nevertheless, it's pretty stable. I really like my lift. Very happy with the purchase. I do move the rig around my garage floor with the ATV strapped on. No problems there.

It should have no problem. I bought this Husqvarna late last spring and have been using it this winter. I have a 4 to 5 inch step up going from my driveway to an adjoining paver patio. I just tilt the snowblower back to get the intake above the patio height and it just drives itself right up.

Not very good for 4 wheeling. Must be on level ground....otherwise it will b OK

Part of my driveway is gravel. I do have to push down on the handles to slightly lift the front end of the snowblower to avoid picking up too much gravel. This would a problem with any snowblower in my opinion. Overall I really like my Husqvarna. It does a great job. --ST

It's a complete kit as far as the lift goes. You may want to get some quick disconnect sway bars while your at it. I put 33" tires on my wrangler and the kit handles them great. If your doing a jeep you may also want to consider a slip yoke eliminator.

It is a good mid lift for a sport track. It raised the vehicle in the front about 2 inches and 1 1/2 in the rear. It levels out the truck good.

Keep a sliding channel clear in the mound beside the driveway, on the downhill side if there is one. This works well on flat roofs too. This moves a lot of snow at once and you never have to pick the snow up. My old one just broke yesterday after many years, I am ordering a new one today.

It works better on inclines. I had regular on 1971 bronco and it work "cough" on inclines....got Thunder, it doesn't anymore.....keeps fuel going into carb with out an issue.

I have a 2010 Silverado Z71 and for towing I like it on the lower side. Highway it's good in the middle. I had it all the way up and it was too stiff for all types of driving.
