Nice, what tyres did you get? Has anyone used the Ironman lift kits? They look good and much more in my price range. I'd love to hear from anyone that has direct experience with them? |

245/75-16 Wild Country XTX. No rubbing anywhere so far. I still have to put my top plates in and have my struts re-assembled correctly |

Assembled new front springs and shocks myself and then installed them. What a PITA! Had to use a hydraulic compressor...NO WAY were they possible using hand tools. So I bought a hydraulic one from PA last week...very cool tool. Ended up with this (the front is not actually that much higher than the rear, pics taken on an SGSII): 21.5" front: OME HD (927) on ironman shocks, no clevis, no spacer 20" rear: two upper isos; stock suspension, but it's still good even if others think 'it should all be done at once' but ymmv The ride is VERY smooth in comparison to the 3-ring clevis lift I had before. Other mods: stock-sized Grabber AT2 engine skid air dam removed front hooks, rear d-ring painted fenders black Now I have two raised vehicles. lol |

Since I haven't posted it yet..... Front JBA coilovers with a 1" cradle drop and knuckle drop to the Jeep to get 5.25 and keep everything happy. Transmission cross member stayed at "stock" location to keep her nice and tucked up. Rear are my custom "5 inch" lift springs with 1 extra isolator. Sent from my SM-N900P using Tapatalk |

No and no plus their springs are rated same as stock and sag in a year Skyjackers are also same as stock rated so no to them Also no to any spacer lift and RRO Stick with OME , Ironman or JBA coilovers for best results |

Hey everyone, new to the forum and interested in this lift thread. I own a 2002 kj sport and I am very limited on lifts. I was reading through couple posts and could not find many 2002 lifted kjs and the ones that are posted do not include the lift brand. I know there is the daystar 2.5" lift that fits but have read mixed reviews, any input is much appreciated. Was really hoping the rough country 3" lift would work but they only fit 2003+ |
