I have read a couple of things about being pre-lowered so I did a search but not much came up. What exactly is pre-lowered?
Something with the Liberty sitting too high and being too tippy from what I understand. Can anyone else give me some more info? Thanks.

Every KJ built before April 12th of 2002 sits 3/4" higher,hence "pre-lowered".

Car and driver mag rolled a 2wd 4 banger KJ on a test tract and blamed the KJ was to tippy,they could not re-create the roll over and called it a feak accident but Jeep lowered the KJ 3/4" anyway.

Cool thanks. It had me confused. So since mine is pre-lowered is there any benefit to that? Heavier springs or anything or did they use the same spring rate and the lowered ones?
