So, i picked up my OME/Rancho lift from Budke this past weekend... and i'm going to install it probably this Friday if not then Saturday... Should be able to get a front end alignment as well same day, anyone willing to come lend a hand i will b at the auto hobby shop on Ft. Stewart in GA beginning at 12:30pm lol... But big thanks goes to Budke for selling me his lift... got a question for all of you libby experts here... will I be able to fit my 31X10.50-15's w/o scrubbing now??? it seems that they only scrub when turned to lock and in reverse, but it has mauled at the edges of the outside a little bit... |

you may get some scrubbing, really depends on the offset of the rims shouldn't be anything that pounding the pinchweld flat won't fix |

I swear i run into the most ridiculous problems on this jeep... I have two different locks for the lugs on my jeep... only one wheel is different than the other three... (previous owners fault) and it just so happens that i lost the lock that goes to the other three wheels but only after i had removed the drivers side rear and replaced the shock and spring... not wanting to undue my hard work, i managed to fanaggle(technical term there) the other rear spring out and the new one in with a crow bar... then replaced the shock... only me... i swear i have no clue what happened to my other lug key... but i do know that my next visit to autozone will fix that... i will get a lock removal kit, remove the locks (all of them) and replace them with a normal booty lug nut! |

You can remove those locks fairly easily, get a socket just smaller than will fit over the body, pound it on with a hammer and then remove the lock. I had this issue with McGard wheel locks, I think it took a 3/4 socket, cheap one that I didn't care about and had the first lock off in 5 minutes. Took me longer to knock the lock out of the socket than turn the lock off the stud. had the other three off in 5 minutes top. They are soooo easy to remove, you will realize that they are not worth the price. Someone wants your wheels, those locks won't slow them down one bit. |

darn, bummer dude! But I was looking at that exact same TJ. Why didn't you tell the dealer to swap the springs out so you'd have the full lift for sale? I may know someone who would want the lift, the guy who might be buying my KJ.
