So my parents bought me an ARB bumper with a Warn M8000 for my high school graduation. We finished installing it this weekend. And boy does my Jeep sit low. So I need a lift that won't sag in the front to much also a problem is getting a 4x4 shop to install it for me. They might not like it if I don't buy it from them. Any help would be great. Thanks, John |

Not sure where you live but my dealer had 4 Wheel Parts install the Rocky Road Outfitters Lift they bought. They had it on the Jeep before i bought it. If my thinking is wrong that they had 4 Wheel Parts put it in then they must have done it themselves.....but I really think 4 Wheel Parts did it. So I think if your just nice to them or whatever they should do it no problem...heck if they do it right then they should hope you'll come back to them to get more Mods done and thus give them more money.... my .02 |

get the OME struts and the HD springs The FRANKINLIFT H.D. front coils won't support the weight of the CRD's, so how is it gonna support an ARB Bumper & winch? The only feesable solution at the present time would be CRD front coils with a Daystar puck lift, RRO Combo, or a Daystar front with choice of rear lift coils, Struts and extended rear shocks. That, or wait till OME comes out with CRD front lift coils which All J Products will use for a CRD FRANKINLIFT. John, if you just installed the bumper and winch you can do the lift also. There's info in the Tech Section and if you post where you're located, there might just be a L.O.S.T. member around your neighborhood that could give you a hand. Good luck on your lifted Libby! |

If you do not want a full lift, you may be able to get by with just a cleavis lift. Or the .75in rustys spacer. Ive heard this spacer will level a stock libby up(make the front as high as the rear), so it may be perfect for ya. Of course the best bet would be the franken lift with OME hd front coils. Call up All J's and they will tell yea what will work the best. But thats another $800. |
