May look alittle small though.

I don't hink they would look to small at all on a stock lib considering they are bigger than what comes on the rig from the factory.

For tires, I really like the look of the Bridgestone Dueler M/T's or BFG Mud Terrain T/A's. If not those, then maybe the Dueler Revo's or the BFG All-Terain T/A's. I'm assuming with either of the M/T tires that I just mentioned, that I'll be in for some serious trimming. :lol:

DEFINITELY can't have small-looking tires on a newly lifted Renny, that's for sure!

Hes is putting a lift on it... Thats the point of this thread.. :wink:

They would look great on a stock libby, but may look alittle small on a lifted one.

So, did I read it right that a FrankenLift is a OME lift with rancho's (and they pre assemble the struts)? or did I miss something?

Soooo it looks like I'll be going the Rusty's coil route without their rear shocks since I'll be going with the Ranchos. Has everyone here been relatively happy with the struts that the kit comes with, or would I be better off just going with the Rancho struts too?

Thanks dudes!

Lovin evey minute of my rustys lift!!! The rear shocks are bad but they are softer than the front struts that come with the kit. The OME struts up front are frickin great!!!! I would not switch them out, but that is jsut me.

Also, has an additional 1.5" Daystar spacer in the front to give it an extra 1.5" over just OME HD springs by themselves. You can also get OME struts as an upgrade if you ask.

The rear is just OME HD springs, with rancho RSX 17004 shocks. Alot of time people throw in an extra spacer or two to level it out, because the front has a tendency to sit a little higher than the rear sometimes.
