BDS Lift kit Front: Bilstein F4-BE5-D916-HO Front struts. Terraflex extended front bumps stops. 2 Conduit nuts each side. Rear: 3 Isolators each side. 2 Hockey pucks each side. Didn't have time to get Boiler's Spacers. Had to order bolts to fit it from a different company. It takes Carriage bolts. Height now: 18" all around. Thanks for all the advice that I have read here. |

No Luck with the lift. Big "O" tires said the front springs were too long. Guess I will have to take it back where they shipped the kit. Bummer |

Big "O" tires probably is unfamiliar with what a lift spring is bds does apparently use a "drop cup" front upper plate tho? I'd get a 2nd opinion before sending it back, there's people running that lift with no problems |

2nd opinion coming tomorrow from Maximum Security. That's where the kit was shipped to. They are the distributor in this area. |

See thats the problem most shops know nothing at all about doing a lift on a Liberty. Take one look and run away! Thats why you do it right and do it yourself!  Make sure they know that two of the bolts on each one have to be installed before it all goes together ( the springs/shocks) BDS does use a "drop cup" design. |

They had one side all installed, but couldn't get it to go into place. The Spring was rubbing on the body, and also it looked loike on the UCA. Sorry I didn't get pictures of it, but I was upset that it wouldn't go together. My mistake. |
