Jjay, very sweet looking rims. What kind of rims are they and what's the back spacing on them 4" - 4.5"?

Are the rear tires able to stuff inside the wheelwell, as they appear to stick out quite abit?

Still waiting on a low level pic of those front axles.

Thanks,
Nick

I am Running 15x8 Mickey Thompson Classic II's with Procomp Xterrains 31x10.50x15 I love the way they stick out alittle - Gives a more aggressive Look to the KJ.

As I mentioned Ive fixed 31/15 but made sure my suspension is hard and dont flex much cause I drive in the desert and very fast. Bit noisy on humps but nothing scary.

That upper ball joint is not going to last very long. Make sure you keep an eye on it.

I think your gonna have to worry about your CV joints more than your UBJ's. Those CV's are at their max from the look of those pics.

I hope your right, but that spring looks loaded up. And from the amount of lift and how close the shop floor looks in the picture, I'm afraid this is the natural state of his CVs. He had already stated that his suspension doesn't really move...

its a weird camera angle cause in reality it doesnt look that bad. Wheels are on but turned all the way out. Ive mentioned my problem with wheel flexing which is I drive as fast as 100km/s in the desert and a small jump usually rips my wheels badly. Jeep service tightend my suspension and measured everything and thats why my warranty is still on.
Sorry to make this message long but I gatta say, Liberty has a big problem with the rubbing wheels issue and they need to sort it out.

Looks like the lift Comprises OME Coils and Struts with the 3/8 inch Rocky Road strut top plate. Its not going to give any more lift than the frankenlift......perhaps a bit less even. I don't think it looks any more maxed out than any of the Frankenlifted trucks.

Are you in Oman? If so, you need to hook up with Laurie.
