wow, I have OME HD springs on order from All J's which are going out on Monday. Reading this thread I almost went and changed my order to MD after the first page....until I kept reading.
TO THE GUYS WITH ACTUAL EXPERIENCE ON THESE BOARDS
Thanks for your input and the way you explain things.....I'm keeping my order the way it is.

That is my plan, Jayme. Placing the order for the HD springs tomorrow (the struts and shocks on mine are OME already)... :wink:

New tires are after, but you already knew that. didn't you...??? :lol:


I wish I could afford to do mine earlier... but based on finances, it probably won't be till September. :( But maybe I'll have it done by the next ECS!! :D


I've got the opposite situation. Got the money now (before I move to Athens and start the doctoral program in August) but won't by the Fall. :lol:

Maybe by the Fall, we will all be running OMEs... :wink:

Thanks! 8)

If I run the OME HD coil in the rear with 1 extra iso I should net about 3"? how many hockey pucks do I need for bumpstops?

2 or 3. What Tom and the rest will generally tell you is 1" of bump-stop for 1" of lift.

For the front clevis you just need to run to the local hardware store and buy some 2” conduit nuts.

The rear isolator you can just buy from your dealer for about $15 each and the p/n is 52088707AA


what's this about the front clevis and rear isolators? I haven't gone through ALL of the thread pertaining to OME and Rancho shock installs but I don't recall anything about these two items in the ones I did read...
Aren't there any isolators now on the rear? And what's the conduit for?
I'll be installing in a couple weeks and want to make sure everything is perfect and that I have everything I need.
Thanks!!

A stock liberty comes with 1 isolator on top, and 1 isolator on the bottom in the rear, you can add UP TO 2 extra, making total of 3 upper isolators, i only have 2 total on the back of mine on each side.

the front shock fork, clamps onto the bottom of the shock, the shock is above the fork. theres room under the shock to space them apart up to about 3/8" to lift the front a little bit

the conduit nut thing looks too "backyard garage" like but thanks for the pic. much appreciated.
So the nuts and the isolators are just for a little extra lift.... I think I'll have enough with the HD springs....I'm a bit low as it is with stock so it should be pretty high when I'm done
