i never got a straight and accurate answer, but the most reliable source told me 310 or so they thought

which is either the same as stock ratio or slightly more

the rear is noticibly cushier than the front 927's which i'm going to regret in a few weeks ;)

Does anyone have a link to a site that sells iso pads for a decent price? Or is the only place to really get one is at your local dealership?

OR, call ALL J's they have a 1/2" spacer they sell for the KJ's rear (IIRC about $15).

Haha I appreciate the dedication. I will get it though, they aren't too bad on price.

One more thing. Does doing a clevis lift/iso pads increase the need for bumpstops? I'm going to have to go for a while without them, and just curious if doing those 2 things made it essential for them.

Well Trademotion has them for $12, so not too bad with shipping either. I'm assuming that it's the uper spring iso, and not the lower. Seems obvious, but I don't want to order the wrong thing.

I checked 3 dealers around here for rear iso's, 2 wanted $21 each and the other wanted $25 ea :shock: I'm not gonna spend $100 on round rubber rings. Any other suggestions??? Trademotion won't ship outside the US
Living in Canada sucks.

Just ordered 4 of them from Trademotion, pretty cheap. And these go ontop of the rear springs, between the stock pad, right?

Hey guys.

Has anyone tried to find a two-piece clamp, 3/8" to 1/2" thick, that could be used in place of the conduit washers? I'm thinking aluminum.

This would allow you to perform the clevis lift without removing the UBJ
and still have a spacer/safety system in case the clevis bolt loosened up out on the trail.

Another question: if you perform the clevis lift without disconnecting the UBJ, (using a crowbar), do you still need an alignment afterwards?

Thanks.

You can use an exhaust clamp. And imo for a clevis lift you don't need an alignment neither do you need an alignment after you popped the UBJ.

(and put it back in place ofcourse :D)

I ran a clevis lift on stock shocks and so no conduit nuts with no problems for almost a year...

I'm going to use the conduits anyways, they're so cheap, I figure why not?
