Do a clevis lift and add a couple rear spacer and save your money for something worthwhile....

tommudd · **Posted:** Fri Dec 18, 2009 8:47 pm

Run from that lift please you will not like it in the long run and its a waste of money , really it is. IF YOU HAVE to get a spacer type lift get a Daystar , your springs have already sagged but you'll get some height. Get front and rear shocks with a Daystar and be good for a while
Hate to see you throw money away.

Local Vendors??? :shock:

Most do not have a clue on what works on a Liberty, they only want to sell you what they have or can get easy!

Plus 315 you have half the cost of a new spring lift, or could of bought a used one on here

No matter you ned new shocks all the way around, you need bumpstops

Oh well too tired to preach the sermon tonight :wink:

Well i havent set my heart on any lift at this point and im probably just acting my age(22) and doing the get it now do it cheap instead of thinking long term saving up the money and getting something that will last. Hmm...i guess no lift until tax returns that way i can get a big boy lift :twisted:

. So lets start with an open suggestions on good lift kits. No more than lets say $800

OK here you go and we're not lifting the KJ we are going to UPGRADE the whole suspension system for a better ride, better control on the road and also way beter off road
Obtain the following
Front
OME 927 springs (2)
Jeepinby Al can still get Rancho RSX 17505s (2)
Teraflex bumpstops (2)
Top plate which you can make or buy from Boiler
6 conduit nuts ( 3 per side ) for a clevis lift

Rear
OME 948 springs (2)
Rancho RSX 17004 (2)
4 hockey pucks for bumpstops
4 upper spring isolators ( dealer item or used)

the above will put you at 22.25 to 22.5 inches from center of wheel to bottom of flare or about 4 inches above what you are now

even if you did not search for the best price and bought everything through JBA it would be about 750 everything brand new.

If you have $300, buy the Rancho RSX 17505 & 17004 asap. They are discontinued and the best option. Wait to install them until you can buy your rancho springs & bumpstops.

If you want some lift right now, buy a set of 3/8" front top plate spacers ($48 shipped from me), put in 3 clevis nuts (like $2), and that all will raise your front by about 1-1/2". Buy four upper isolators from the dealer for the rear and that will raise your rear by a smidge over an inch. These are all parts and mods that you'll reuse when you can buy all your other lift parts.

If it is just a matter of waiting until tax refunds :roll:

you might as well just buy the rancho's (so you don't miss out on them) and when your tax check comes buy the rest. That is only like 45 days away if you file right away. You'll be lucky to have all your parts in by then anyway.

I'd definitely snag a set of ranchos if you're going to do the OME rancho lift though.

Rancho Springs Boiler ????????? Come on now, as much and as many times as you have heard me preach the Gospel according to OME , and you write Rancho Springs

I can see now that not everyone is awake during my little sermons, we may have to start having a test weekly :wink:

We got about 1 inch of the white crap, lot of ice mixed in with it. I'm still too sick to get out to play in it.
