Which spring isolators are KJers using, upper or lower?

Mate

I used a 10mm TJ trim packer made the inner hole just large enough to fit over the bump stop and placed the upper isolator over the top.

i think people here are using the Upper spring isolator

I'd like to those pics. Will two trim packers possibly work per side or only one?

I would like to get 20mm (3/4") out of it, if I could.

Thanks

Upper isolators. They are about 10 dollars a piece at the delear and give just about 1/2" of lift.

if you look closely you will see some yellow material in the upper spring perch, thats the 10mm packer underneath the upper spring isolator, from flexing it after i fitted it with swaybar attacher there is no way it can come unstuck

also beware of KJ's if they have not been wheeled for a while they will BITE you (see Finger)

Fouros, what do you think about the new ride your KJ has?

Fouros · **Posted:** Wed Feb 08, 2006 10:50 pm

it is Very nice

not too firm but firm enough,

and there is HEAPS of flex from the rear end now

That finger sure looks nice!

Those Ranchos let the rear flex alot more than the ome shocks I have. If i ever upgrade thats what ill get.
