3.5" Lift with 295/70R18 - which drive mode to use?

[Diego.C]

This week, I'm installing a Rough Country 3.5" Lift on my 2025 Outer Banks and also adding 295/70R18 Reccon Grapplers.

I know the mileage will be affected, but wanted to know if I should change the drive mode, I cirrently use the normal mode, but should I use Sport Mode or Eco Mode?

Drive in regular mode as normal. I bet you hardly feel a difference.

Eco sucks so bad, I removed it.

Eco mode in 4H with ASS turned off is my preferred mode for slower wheelin. The pedals lighter response is really nice on it. Just annoying you can't engage the front locker in that mode. If I'm going fast offroad, then Sport in 4H.

Use whatever mode you feel best in really. A lot of people love Sport mode for the aggressive throttle response. Some people like Eco mode. I've even seen people use Baja to keep the cameras online.

Just don't run around in a mode that throws you in 4Lo while trying to doing 70 down the freeway.

Good news is that if your out of the modes bounds/guidelines it won’t go in or it turns things off like going 70 and trying to enter mud ruts mode. Or going above 35ish and it will turn off the lockers.

I finally install the lift and you all are right, no difference in the driving mode and still rides really good, I picked terra grapplers instead or Reccon Grapplers. Heres how it turned out.

Tha ks for the suggestions

I'd be more concerned about the Rough Junky parts than the drive mode.
