The rubber boots on my upper ball joints are making contact with my spring. It's been doing this for a little while now but I just got to thinking about it and it's bothering me. Should I take the time to take off the clevis nuts (3) and one of my iso pads off the rear (to level it out) to fix this issue? How much lower would the truck be if I did this? Thanks. |

Oh, man. I'm sorry to hear about your spring contact. The variances I see among different KJs drives me nuts. Things that work for some don't always pan out for others. It's got me nervous about any other mods because I don't want to make more work for myself in the long run just as I'm starting grad school. Can't afford to be without a vehicle for long. Good luck. |

Thanks. Naw, just leave im in and get a set of Jeepin Al's upper A-Arms. If you take them out, expect to loose 3/4" - 1". |

I just installed rusty's front strut plates on top of my rusty's coil lift and 3 nut clevis lift. Still no contact with al's arms. It finally sits level. |
