Hey hey,
Been out of the jeep game for a couple months and would love to see a cheaper full lift package for the kk..kinda hoping Jeepin by al or some one has come out with a decent 2-21/2 in kit for less than they have been. Any one know of any?

I'm bout to get stock height ome's and go back to day star, current ome's are sagging o.o

What?
You sure you have an ome lift? What numbers are on the stickers on the springs?

What are stock height ome springs? Stock spring rate yes, but still lift springs.
Combining daystar/925/730s might not be a good idea..

What are the measurements, from center of wheel to bottom edge of the fender flare (front and back)?

How long have you had the lift for?
Also did you go for the HD/MD springs?

I have gotten over 2 inches of lift without the top plates and spacers...It would suck if they start to sag pretty soon :(

Only it about 1.5-2in of lift from them, they are stiffer than stock but the sag only maybe 10k miles into them is bothersum

Off the top of my head I think in at 20.5-21 from wheel center

Ran my first set of 927s for 100,000 miles , they sagged about 1/2 inch over that time and that was with an ARB hanging off the front
Were the springs new when you bought them, if not there maybe part of the issue

Oh and combining OME springs and Daystar
Well if you want issues go for it :wink:

They werent used when I got them, I dont think so at least haha

I had a shop install them and thy mentioned that the rear ones were the same height as the oem ones, and the front were only slightly taller. I chalked that up to the springs being stiffer..

If I went back to day star I'd go back to original springs lol I've been warned up and down about adding the two. Absolutely won't be doing it :)
