The Frankie will be showing up on the door step. So my question to you guys is. I have a 06 Limited. And I was wondering how many Rear Iso's I should get so it sits level?

From what I have seen on here I would run it for a while for the lift to settle and then level it out if needed, most times the front is higher when installed but will come down to about level after a while

should not be too much at all, I can remove my shocks and change springs out in under 1/2 hour. Thing is you put them in with the lift to make it level at the time and then when the front settles and the rear is too high you have to take them back out so its 6 of one half a dozen of another.

Think he is trying to get me confused. I am already confused. I have never/wont take my suspension apart. only thing I know is what I read and learn. So this "so its 6 of one half a dozen of another." Means nothing to me. lol and by the looks of it. Confused others as well.

Means it doesn't matter, You can put them in to start but you'll have to take them out when it all settles to get it level again. Or you can leave 'em out and wait then you have to put them in at that time.

6 one way 1/2 a dozen the other... (it's the same)

lol 1/2 of a dozen=6, incase you were wondering! :lol: :lol:

the rear suspension is the easiest part. im only 5'9 and 150lbs a little guy haha and all it took was like a jack, some tools and thast it. undo the rear shock. stick a lil jack between the axle and the body and push the isolators on top of the spring. and then put it all back together.

Would like to thank Marty at Rock Lizard for giving great customer service. Keeping me updated and call backs whenever I needed. Really appreciate it.

Would recommend anyone thinking about getting a lift. Talk to Marty. Easy guy to talk to.


Although!!! I didnt get my lizard sticker :( Have another idea for that though. Back to the design board.

Thanks again Marty.

Lord willin’ and the creek don’t rise, these youngsters will eventually catch on. I’m 32 and I still know the language! I think most of the language barriers has a little to do with those who were raised in the City vs who was raised in the Country.
