If the winch is to be permanent, then yes, OME HD. But that winch is in a receiver hitch and thus, only there when he goes off-road, I'm assuming. However, having been a previous owner of Rusty's front coils, I can tell you that it's going to sit quite a bit lower after a couple of years (or less if you wheel like I do), even without a winch. |

Rusty's coils are a waste of time, IMO, even under a KJ with nothing more than a front hitch. OME HD's ride BETTER, to boot! |

While I recommend the Rusty's 2.5" Coil Lift, as compared to other's opinions on this site since I had one and had no problems with mine, I would NOT recommend Rusty's with a steel bumper and definitely not a winch. |

after
I like it But have some trimming to do

and BUMPSTOPS yes in the front of the wheels where the little doors are to get inside the bumpers and on the sides where the inside of the tires rub at sharp turns. bump stops will be Tarraflex .and i dont know about the rear bumpstops yet. i wont wheel it or flex it till i get them. I just got it on tonight and have not had a change to deal with the rubbing yet. It doesn't hit the pinch welds though. |
