if you look through the pics on here you can find some, PBrug posted some of his on here plus when I did jerbachers he posted back about the end of April pics of his and mine, for some reason mine appears lower but was almost the same heighth when measured by the way mine has 245-70X16 tires

You can see pics of my KJ HERE. I would have responded to your request for pics but figured you were looking for KJ's with an OME lift only. Mine's a little different because I added a few parts to the front.

the amount of lift will depend on how much sag your jeep has over ,or rather under stock
we netted 2" after 5-6K on the lift
we had 36-38K on the KJ when we lifted it

It will not sit level it will keep the factory rake
how ever a small clevis lift will level thing out

its a standard 2.5'' OME, but jeep guys added something on top to lift it to 4''. Then I got jeepinal upper arms which where reinforced at the welding point. Also fixed moog ball joint. its been 3 years and no probs

I know the usual question is cv joint...well no worries so far, but im working on custom made lowering kit...yet again I say ive done so many jumps in the last 3 years and nothing broke...except for side fenders :roll:

ive got 31''cooper al terrain, rims are 15 but 10''wide...no spacers involved. I can go up to 33s but desert driving includes good jumps on top of dunes ending with nasty rubbing...31s are doing fine

check out what my mechanic did for the commander...same way...cost heaps more but proper...mine is all experimental :cry:

Hemi 5.7...5.5'' lift

will rusty,s strut plates lift it enough to even it out?
Author:  renegadekj [ Mon Jul 23, 2007 8:39 pm ]

Yes the strut plates will level it out but i think that also depends on what spring rates you use. I would recommend HD's all around! i used the HD's rear and MD's up front(as my sig shows) and i added a rusty's strut plate to level it out (few weeks after the lift insatll.) Now that the lift has been on for 4 months now Iam noticing the front sagging just a bit, but thats nothing a clevis lift can't fix! Get a OME lift you won't be dissapointed :wink:
