rusty coil spacer lift

buns79 · **Posted:** Mon Oct 08, 2007 10:15 am

does anyone know of a shop or anyone in the springfield IL area that would install or help install a rusty's 2.5 coil spacer lift. I have installed several lifts on tj's but have never messed with with an IFS with struts.

Unless you want to use a shop for the insatll Its not that hard to do if you have the tools and a few hours. Some good write ups on here about the installation or ask for some help on here someone may live close enough to come over and help you out. I have done 4 now and it gets easier each time. :wink:

x2, if you installed lifts on TJs then doing a KJ aint gonna be too more complicated, if at all. I aint ever lifted a KJ but I have done a few TJs and the KJ seems pretty straightforward to me

Take it all apart, take the struts (with all the strut parts from Rusty's) to a shop with a spring compressor, have them rebuild the struts, take them home and put it all back together. If I can do it, just about anyone can. As long as you disconnect the sway-bar and the steering linkage, it's pretty easy.

You dont need a strut compressor as the rustys spacer kit is OTT.

Oh crap, didn't notice THAT before! Save your money and get a real suspension lift. OTT spacers are bad! <-- just my opinion and others will disagree.
