What's up guys,

Fairly new to this KJ modifying craze but I'm really looking at doing either a spacer or suspension lift here real soon and I was wondering if anyone would be interested in helping out? I'm waiting on my truck to sell first (in my signature link) and when it does, the lift is getting ordered. I'm fairly new to working on Jeeps so I was hoping to find some locals that know what to do. I'll provide the pizza, pop, and beer, but I'd need a place to do it at as I don't have a garage... Anyhow, thought I'd see if there are any KJ nuts in the NE Ohio area, I'd be willing to drive to C-bus or anywhere 2-3 hours from Cleveland.

See yah on the trail,

Josh

PS- if you know anyone looking for a sweet Silverado, check out my link below and pass it on!

LIBAR8R,
I'm probably your closest contact, being around 20 mins. from the Westside of Cleve. However, I don't have a garage either.

Well, I'm in Kent...but I don't have a garage either and don't know anything about installing lifts. So, I'm pretty much no help at all. BUT, I would be interested in attending a session as a learning experience. Keep posting here to let us all know if something is gonna happen.

I'm in Mayfield Heights.... let me know when you get the lift. I work with my dad and we're going to be leasing a shop for at least the next 6 months. I will be in and out of town with work, but will be willing to offer my services and time. I have spent plenty of time lowering hondas, and swapping out engines, and the liberty front suspension is similar to the front dual wishbone that is found on a honda.

I should have a welder, and will have 80psi of shop air and plenty of metric tools.

Let me know well in advance (PM me if you would like) as I have 1 and a half kids. (one every other weekend, one full time)

Assuming that your libby is clean (no rusted bolts) we should be able to take the suspension apart and put it back together in about 4 hours.

Good to know Donkeykong. Thanks for offering! I live in Kent and work in Chagrin Falls, so if I ever get around to getting a lift, I will look you up for sure!

P.S. Love the name!

Thanks... the name goes back to when I used to rock a 91 Honda CRX... people told me I looked like I belonged on mariokart, and that all I needed was to throw banan peels out of my sunroof :wink:

I used to live in Stow, loved the area. I'm down that way a few times a month, mainly to play my drums at my bassists house, and if not that I mountain bike (in the spring/summer/fall) at westbranch in ravena.
