| Post subject: | Rough Country 3” Lift Install |
For full color directions you can goto this web site and down load them: http://www.roughcountry.com/jeep_liberty_3.html This is the list of tools that I used: 1/2” Ratchet 8 mm Allen Wrench 10mm Wrench 24mm Wrench 15mm Deep Well 18mm Deep Well 19mm Deep Well 22mm Deep Well 24mm Deep Well 36mm Hub Socket Med. Alignment Spike 12” Pry bar Hammer WD 40 Floor Jack 2 Jack Stands First i had to get the "Before" pic...
Now im only going to show a few of the key point of the install: This is the 3" puck installed on the front:
Ill give yall one guess on which is the stock spring for the rear...
This is with the stock springs and shocks removed..
The lifted spring and shocks installed
and then here is the "After" shot...
From what i can see in directions on the Rough Country’s web site, this would be the same type of removal and install for any other lifts that would use pucks and springs. The one other part I will be adding really soon is a set of Firestone Airbags from 4 Wheel Parts at $89 which will help in keeping the rear level when pulling a load. I hope this helps in trying to decide on which lift to install. Total time for the install was only 4 hours with just the tools listed... |

Just a thought: don't you need to fit larger bumpstops on the front? To me this looks like an OTT lift, but then on the other side of the strut. Botteming out is still posible.... |

on the 2 1/2 - 3" spacer lifts - you have a very,very high probability of tearing the drivers side CV boot on install. diesel is offset so the CV axle is shorter that said - it can be done - I ran a Daystar 2 1/2" spacer for about 40Kmiles - but it killed the springs. an all spring OME lift is much better. and Welcome to LOST. |
