I've got 80,000 mi on my '02 KJ, but have never replaced the shock/struts or springs. I am looking at getting a Frankenlift II, but don't know if I should get the Premium or not, so I'm looking for opinions. Also, for those with a Frankenlift, how many nuts are you using on the clevis, if any; same for rear isolators? Thanks in advance!

Best way really is to install the Frankenlift without anything and go from there.
It will sag a little over time and then you can adjust if you want more.
Doing it right away ( adding some conduits ) puts the CVs on a pretty good angle
Most run one extra in the rear with just a Franky

Thanks Tom! I've only recently heard about U-joint(?) issues after lifting. What is this and what should I be looking for?

Can I put the extra rear iso on at the time of the lift install or do I need to wait for the lift to settle first?
