Hi guys I had a KK

With this setup:
Front:
OME 2927
OME 90009

Rear:
OME 2731
OME 132L

I wanted to go with more lift so I added
Front:
JBA Top spacer plate
Clevis Spacer 0.735
JBA UCA´s

Rear:
Two Isos per side

But today when I went to pick up my car after installing all of that, the handling was awful and the car was WAAAAYY Higher in the front than in the back.

Do you have any ideas of what might have gone wrong?? please help!!!

Right after r & i ing the front suspension its going be a bit higher because they components haven't settled in. The handling on the drive home probably felt weird because its now out of alignment...
What are the measurements from the center of the wheels to the bottom of the fender flares?

Also I'm guessing you meant .375 (Decimal equivilant to 3/8") instead of .735

That's what Tom and I were hoping in his post of JF. Measurements would help, but biggest thing is an alignment, assuming the lift is installed correctly and the clevis lift is a typo(meaning it's a 3/8" clevis instead of 3/4").

Alignment will help drop the front some, it helps with CV angles(depending on height, they might be crying lol I know mine were when I first installed the 927, top plate and 3/8" clevis lift, the alignment fixed it), and will fix your handling problems.

Plus he installed new UCAs so hoping he tightened those after full weight on the ground. If he didn't that would cause issues as well at first
