My CRD lives in another country. Just bought it in Dec 16. There aren't a lot of parts places there (Belize) so I am having to ship everything down. I'm planning on making a trip there in May and doing some work on the KJ.

Among other things, I'll be doing the suspension - Front and Rear Springs and Shocks.

I have no interest in lifting the KJ. To this point, I've settled on the following:

Front - OME 790 spring / Bilstien 4600 24-139168 shock

Rear - OME 978 spring / Bilstien 4600 24-139175 shock

I understand this will create a slight lift without any worries off additional stress on the drive lines.

Are there any other options to consider?

Also, are there any other parts I would need to get for the suspension refurb?

I appreciate any help with this!

Thanks!

I have no interest in lifting the KJ. This will give you about 2.25-2.5 inches of lift
To this point, I've settled on the following:

Front - OME 790 spring / Bilstien 4600 24-139168 shock USE FRONT OME SHOCKS THEY SEEM TO WORK AND LAST BETTER OVERALL

Rear - OME 978 spring / Bilstien 4600 24-139175 shock YES WILL WORK GOOD

I understand this will create a slight lift without any worries off additional stress on the drive lines.

ALSO NEED TERAFLEX FRONT BUMPSTOPS
CAN USE HOCKEY PUCKS IN THE REAR BOLTED DOWN TO THE LOWER SPRING PERCH
