just like the topic says how much have ya'll been getting from the OME med springs and NO clevis lift?
I know that it may be a little late now but I whent out and ordered the springs and such and I am now concerned that it may be a little much in the lift dept.

The web seems to indicate 30-40mm in gain for the set up wich is only 1.25-1.5" wich is pushing it
I am now thinking that it may be close to 2 inches due to settling in the springs I did put in a 3/8" spacer/clevis lift a while back to prop up the front sag
I am hoping that when I get it all togeather and take out the clevis lift I end up with only an inch over where I sit now wich would be perfect

any thoughts?

About 1.25" in the front is what I originally got on my 2003KJ with med springs. Ofcourse HD springs will give more.

The rear seems to sit alittle higher. Probably around 1.5-1.75. Mine isnt level and i have 2 conduit washers under the front clevis.. :? Im getting the rustys front springs soon so hopefully it will level the front out with the rear.. 8)

thats ok I have the 3/8 spacer and it is still not level
I may could figure a way to make the rear sag some but .25-.5" she may not notice the diff. :twisted:

Mines level with the OME Heavy Duties and a clevis in front did sit a little higher in the front for the first few days but settled down real good, esp after throwing the ARB on front. Right under the doors where it rolls down to the pinch weld I am 17.25 in the rear and 17 in the front
