It all depens on what makes your KJ level! Some use 2 and some use 3. I believe jasonK used 4 without any problems. I would think two or three would be good to level you out!

what struts are you going to be using ? That makes a little difference as well due to the way they are made. OME/Stock I would say 3, if Ranchos you have to add 2 more due to them passing up over the little lip . so 3 if OME / stock struts, 405 with Rancho, of cousre also it may sit just a little higher in the front until the springs settle and you have it aligned. Hope that we have t-totally confused you now!

no not at all tommudd thanks! :D ok so maybe i'll go with three instead of 2 then since the one extra doesn't seem to cause anyone here any problems. they'll be OME struts btw..OME MD all around for everything actually. ..now, i DO have a larger tire sittin on the back there, but that shouldn't be too much added weight to require HDs in back, right?

no not even close with the bigger tire, its not enough weight to make a difference like that, youll be fine in the back

Just to clairify, the electrical conduit nuts are 1/8" thick and 2" in diameter. So 3 X 1/8" = 3/8", which will net 3/4" in actual added lift.
