What is everyone running strut-wise on their suspension lifts? Does anybody make longer struts?? Also, I'm having a pain-in-the-butt time with the spring compressors. How have you guys gotten them in-between the springs?

I'm running Rancho's

Ended up taking mine to a tire shop that had a wall mounted unit.
(the spring compressor with the lip on the hook wouldn't come out while the spring was compressed at all)

It was $20 ( although I don't think he logged it, it was Sunday morning and they had 4 techs sitting around waiting for customers)

"Does anybody make longer struts?? Also, I'm having a pain-in-the-butt time with the spring compressors."

The answer to your first question is, "Yes". As to the spring compressors....the Frankenlift comes with its strut assembly pre-compressed. Just one reason why I and many others feel the Frankenlift is the best lift currently available for the Liberty.
