LIFTED (With Kit and Installed Shots)

E2 · **Posted:** Mon Feb 15, 2010 9:39 pm

4" Spring KIT:

INSTALLED:

Flex'd too much: My drive shaft hit my gas skid plate. Need to adjust track bar......

Not the best shot... but I thought I would share as soon as I had a picture of the latest KK fork. As you can see it's different from the one shown above.

Let me stretch....
Rear passenger side stretched to center of wheel to bottom of fender 27" and the driver rear side compressed down to 18.5"
Front Passenger 21" and driver front 22-1/2"

Wish List:
235/85r16 or 265/75r16
Tire Gate (Tire Rack for hitch) as a 32" tire can't fit underneath
4.10 Gears

couple things ive noticed... the new clevis, if you look at diggers, his does not utilize this and i had read somewhere i think that it was for the 2.5 lift. also, no extended front bump stops?

Your correct his utilizes the bottom connection (clevis) and the one I have replaces the entire system.
Currently have cranked down to get about 3" of lift with measurements of about 21" from center of wheel to bottom of fender flare. To get this I cranked/compressed the coil from the first thread on top to the top of the wheel/bolt/washer (not the locker washer) 3" inches. You could crank it down about another 4" but that would compress the coil in half into only 4" that is not going to work. To get 4" of lift you could crank it down about 1" more. Not sure how the ride would be as the coil just keeps getting more compressed.

I'm not sure what Marlin's plans are. Mine was basically a hurry up fix because of how bad shape my front coils were in...

Jeepin_it_real · **Posted:** Tue Feb 16, 2010 5:10 pm

after looking at the price tag :shock:

.. lol i might have to wait a while on this one if i decide to do this

is anyone using the 5 inch coil?... and wat is the quick disconnects

DirtyKK · **Posted:** Tue Feb 16, 2010 5:16 pm

i believe digger has the 5" coils, they are HDs if you carry alot of extra weight with you. the quick disconnects are for the front sway bar. when you disconnect the sway bar the front should get more articulation.

Now that is a nice kit.

I really hope that price is making him profits.
As it looks a bit low for what you get.

I was expecting $4,300. So he is doing a nice Job.

Very nice E2! Congrats on the new look.
I see your Jeep has a little Nitro in it. Your front bump stops are labeled KA not KK. :ROTFL:

they share some common part lot's the kk and ka, it's probably a backing assembly or something for the fascia
