New suspension components, will a leveling kit for the front of jeep still be required? Or will the new shocks, struts, and springs, level out my vehicle? If a leveling kit required, just go with the Daystar 1.5" leveling? Thanks.

Peace.

One of your other posts mentioned OME - so I'm assuming that's what you got.

first - you should not be able to fit a Daystar 1.5 with the OME - you'll tear the drivers side CV boot - if you can get it to bolt together - and your CV angle would be too steep.

second the OME normally is higher in the front (unless you have the ARB and Winch) - in which case it's the rear that needs additional lift - in general an extra spring isolator or two works well for that.

Thanks for the reply. That is what I was hoping for, at least not needing the the front leveling kit. I will make sure to have a couple of those washers around and install if needed.

Peace.
