I got it roughly 3 yrs. ago with 78K on the clock. Was female owned and very clean inside and out. Other than dropping a valve and needing a new motor while on vacation (@83K), it has been GREAT around here in the snow. I live in a rural area so the snow plows don't put in much of an appearance here lol.

liberty noob here:

I'm at 21.5 F, 21.25 R both sides. It was already lifted when I bought it--all i can tell for sure is spacers front and rear. How much higher can I go w/ the CRD before I run into CV issues? The CV angles don't look bad at all. It has 265/70's on stock 16's right now, only rubbing on the inner fender/"frame" area, and I'd like to go to a 265/75 on 16x8 w/ less backspacing pretty soon.

edit: mileage is 69k

Found this thread when I had the backbone and winch off in order to paint the backbone so I've got measurements with and without backbone/winch:

without backbone and winch:
LF: 21" RF: 21 3/8"
LR: 20 5/8" RR: 20 7/8"

with backbone and winch:
LF: 20 9/16 RF: 20 15/16
LR: 21" RR: 20 15/16

So it looks like the backbone and winch dropped the front about 5/16" - 7/16" while raising the rear a bit.

mileage on the vehicle is 45k, guessing the mileage on the lift is about 10k (bought it lifted). OME HD lift
