Just bought the JBA upper A-arms and I would like to know if anyone had installed the struts. I want to know if this struts really improve the ride/articulation for OFF ROADING. Any comments will be appreciated. Thanks Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro |

They have 10" of travel. You're sway bar will be the limiting factor. If you got sway bar disconnects you'll have more flex. |

Do you have a picture of the struts installed and the sway bar disconnects? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro |

The KK adjust a struts have a narrower diameter spring than stock or OME, which eliminates any spring-uca contact while flexing. It’s also a better quality ride on the road. |

Have them on both 03 and 04 KJs ( same setup as the KK of course ) Ride/ handling and off road are far better than anything else available smoother ride / off road it floats |

I have the old style made with Bilstein shocks. I absolutely love them. Ride and perform better than my OME 927s both on and offroad. As far as articulation, because of the tighter/smaller spring you can get a little more drop/more lift before having the upper control arms contact the springs. Honestly your real limiting factor with front articulation is the tie-rods and sway bar links. Without the sway bar connected you might gain an additional inch or so, but then you start binding the tie rod ends. |
