Hello guys!

I installed in my jeep liberty kk OME Shocks and springs. But I would like to get higher.

What options do I have since I would like to get between 1.5"-2" more on my lift?

Can I combine OME with the daystar 2" kit? and Adding new A-arms?

Thanks for your help in advance.

If you want a jacked up POS lawn ornament then sure put a Daystar with OME
But i'm sure you don't :wink:
It been posted 1000s of times before
but if you didn't read or don't want to
a 3/8 inch clevis will give you 3/4 inch of lift
then add a 1/4 inch top plate for another 1/2 inch lift
so there is 1.25 inches more, along with what the OME 927s gave you in front is the max amount you want to go
OH and buy some JBA UCAs since you'll need then
Now that the front end is up more add two per side extra upper isolator's in the rear to sit level
Hope you got the 927s in front and the 132L rear shocks

By the way Welcome to LOST
LOTS and LOTS of great information on here if you look

Did installing the shocks and springs get you any lift just by themselves? If so, what did you use and how much lift did you get?

This to the T. If you went with 927s, you should have about 2.5" up front. Add the clevis and top plate you can get around 3.5". It's a great height and where I'm sitting. BUT you WILL need al's a-arms, otherwise you can kiss your alignment good bye, and will get constant spring contact.

Fyi there is a brand new set of JBA arms in the for sale section at a good discount.
