Hey there guys, I have a few quick questions to ask. Don't worry, there is a reason to my madness.

1. How high are you running up front


2. How many miles at that height.


3. Any front end issues? (ie: CV's joint blowing up, CV Boot blowing, vibrations.... things like this)


After I gather a little info, I'll then post my reason for this post.....

22.5 inches

around 18k

replaced passenger cv and inner axle shaft due to vibration. passenger side steering rack mount ripped off, welded, ripped off again, replaced with new. cv/inner axle shaft has recently started making intermittent noise again. i have not wheeled it since replacing the steering rack with a new one. i used to wheel every weekend in fl swamp muck and sand so i'm blaming the cv issues on that. i think the steering rack broke because at full droop the tie rod ends and sway bar links would make contact. i've since bought a XJ so i havent and probably wont wheel the liberty anymore. if i replace the cv/inner axle shaft and the issue comes back again ill be replacing the JBA lift with OME springs to lower it a bit.

side note: im pretty sure when i had the 3.5" RK it only actually yielded me about 2.5" or so.

Front is 21.5 driver & 21 7/8 passenger w ome 927/bilsteins. No issues except when i tried using the daystar top plate + 3/8 shims and had bad uca contact and pinholed the ubj boot.
When i was running the Daystar it was about the same height. 12k miles lifted.
