Hey everybody, I am getting ready to have some work done on my 2005 KJ and my truck shop suggested a 2" lift up front and a 1.25 inch lift in the rear using a leveling kit. Anybody use one and are these safe for the KJ? Also what type of performance shocks do you recommend for Sand Dunes? They suggested the Rancho 5000. I do need to maintain stability on the highway so I am a bit concerned. Thanks for the help! |

If you are concerned about how it handles on the road may I suggest going to a full spring lift with new shocks The "so called leveling kit" is nothing more than spacers which given you have an 05 and the suspension has sagged already its not the best route to go Full OME kit with OME or Bilstein shocks is the way to go check jeepinbyal as one place can buy the full kit or by the piece In the end it will handle dunes/roads everything way better If you're anywhere close to the border of Ohio we can show you the best way to go and how they ride when done right Your truck shop is only selling what they want to sell not what works best for you |
