As the title states, I'm looking for anyone that could install an OME lift on my KJ. I'm a complete novice when it comes to these things.

I've reached out to some 4x4 shops already, just awaiting their reply... but I was hoping that maybe someone on here with experience lifting a KJ (or similar) could help me out.

I don't mind compensating, whether it be through money, food, both, etc... and I'd come to you since I don't have a garage or driveway space.

This wouldn't be til summer time, so plenty of advance notice.

Located in Clinton, MD.

Thanks

I live in Silver Spring, MD. I don't have tools here so I usually work on my jeeps at my buddies house in York, PA. I have the driveway space though if we needed a place to work on it.

I'm down.

Silver Spring is about 45mins away from me - and I'm 2 hours away from CIEJEK.

You guys know anything else I'd need to buy in addition to:

- OME 927 HD Front Springs
- OME NS131 Front Struts
- OME 948 MD Rear Springs
- OME NS132L Rear Shocks

I know there's top plate, conduit nuts, hockey pucks, etc... just need to know how many and where to buy them to add them to the list above.

I did mine and Powerman04 OME 2.5" lift down in the Quantico Auto Hobby Shop. Not a big deal really and they have all the tools needed, well so do I but their wall mounted spring compressor is much easier to use than mine.
