I actually heard that from one of the guys at ALL j's about 3 years back when I first switch over from my Skyjacker lift, It was an isolated insident. I would give Heather a call and see what she says.

Happened to me as well after about about a year, right at the first obstacle on Gold Mountain during the Big Bear Crawl '08. All J's covered it under their warranty for me, I would give them a call. My issue turned out being a bad batch from Daystar.

AllJ's had a issue with some of there spacers falling apart,they have resolved those issues and you should contact them for warranty.

Hi Guys

I live in South Africa (Cape Town) and it has happened to me twice. In both cases Heather supplied me replacement parts free of charge but I had to pay the company to install them for me. The last time AllJ send me 2 different types and the one (I think she referred to it as stock) worked much better. Its been now almost a year and still no problems.

Maybe the reason that there is not a lot of other KJ owners complaining is that they havent looked at it yet :wink:

Thanks and hopefully this is a good batch,
Kaleb

You know, you could possibly do the work yourself.

Aaron's right. Rent/borrow/buy a set of spring compressors (got mine from Advanced Auto for like $35). My buddy Bill and I have found plenty of uses for them working on my KJ and his '94 XJ. Besides that it is just a socket set, something to hold the unit (a vice or second pair of hands), and LOTS of elbow grease. :wink:

A nice long breaker bar sure does help too.
