Hey all! This is my first post.... ok here it goes. I have a 06crd with 99k on here the stock system is shot and im looking at the ironman with crd set up with 15mm trim packers amd 1/4 top plates with terflex bump stops amd als ucas will this work for 2.5 lift and level her out and doing the 4in rear bumpstopz that you can trim down. I do not want a franlie or rro or a mixmatch set just any help will work. Im military so there is always back roads to tear up n here in ft bliss we got dunes so i deploy in dec but want to get all my goodies when im over seas so i can come home and play |

I lifted mine with Rocky Road Outfitters, Rockfather 1 it was a good kit overall with good directions however if you can afford it I would go at least with the Rockfather 2. They have kits for the CRD's and the 2 comes with full size rear springs instead of just spacers. Also I would recommend ordering their bump stop extensions if you do go with the Rockfather 1 http://www.rocky-road.com/kjrockfather.html Also I know I a lot of guys on here go with the Frankenlift, I've never bought or installed one so I can't give you to much info on them but it sounds like a lot of guys like them (and if not I'm sure I'll be getting replies saying otherwise.) I just realized after reading this you said you don't want a RRO but I thought I would leave the post since over all in my opinion it was a good kit. |

Have you done the TB service? if not you need to do this or you will not have a KJ to go wheeling in. |

ya i got the crd allnice an working and clean as much as i can and what the noob guide says.... not my first diesel but the timing belt idk... dont have 1k to fork out for it.... i looked at rro at first imean they look complete but heard nothing but ba things from them.... i just dont know which one i wnt but i do need one.... im leaning more to ironman with crd springs, 15mm trimpacker and 3/8 top plte along with als uca unless the rro is now better built and no issues |

X2 idparts will sell you an entire kit for ~$550 http://www.idparts.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=29_54&products_id=2721 and Sam has a 5 part video on how to change http://www.lostjeeps.com/forum/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?p=674897#p674897 you'll probably have to borrow some tools but not only is your engine close to the mileage limit - but the belt is now almost 7 years old - and they can die from age too if you don't have the money to maintain it - how are you going to have the money to repair it? |
