I'm getting ready to install beadlocks on the MJ and I'm tossed up on what style to go with.
If I go with the internal style I can use my existing rims and not alter the width of the truck. Just not too sure about relying on the tubes holding up.
If I go with weld on beadlocks I'd get the .250" thick version, so I have no doubt that they will be pretty rugged. The only downfall is that I would have to get new rims because of the existing rock rings. If I install just outers I can stick with my current backspacing. But if do inners & outers then I will have to go with less backspacing to allow space for brake caliper and tie rod clearance. This will widen out the stance a bit, and I really like it the way it is.
I'm looking for opinions on Internal vs. outer vs. inner & outer beadlocks.
