Before

After

I still need to chop some of the front bumper, still getting rub in reverse.
I measured 18 1/4" from wheel center to fender before, and 22 1/4" after lift. 37" from ground to fender after lift as well.

I am still waiting for my spare wheel. They sent the wrong one the first time, so my tire is waiting to get mounted and balanced once the right one shows up. I am going tomorrow to have the alignment fixed too.

Keep saving, it is so worth it. I was going to go with the Rancho shocks but saved a bit more and went all out. The OME shocks, struts and springs are made to go together, and since it is my DD I wanted a nice ride. It rides like a champ now. It is huge too - surprised me. When I got the first front side done, I put the new tire on and took out the jack from under the lower control arm. I had the front end sitting on 2 jacks stands to begin with, and when I removed the scissors jack, the new tire sat on the ground and the jack stands were useless at the height I had them set at. I had to raise them up to do the other side. I looked at the finished side and thought, there is no way, it has to be sitting on the stands still. It was so high up. But nope, it wasn't.

that looks great!!!! brings back memories of when mine was freshly lifted. pulled up to an H2 and the headlights were the same height

looks really good with the black rack/bars, black rockrails, black fender flare rivets, and black wheels! i also painted my rock rails black (had a lot of rash on them that was rusting). in my opinion the frankenlift is the best, highest, and nicest riding/installing lift for the money! it's a bit more than rustys but well worth it!

That looks awesome. I may have to upgrade to the Frankenlift once my Rusty's lift starts to go.

sidewayskj · **Posted:** Fri May 09, 2008 12:16 pm

reading your measurements got me wondering.. so i parked mine on a flat, level spot (my garage) and took some.

Front
Ground to flare = 38
Hub to flare = 23in
Back
Ground to flare = 37
Hub to flare = 22 in

soo your assuming mine was the same height as yours (without the extra rear isolator)... dont expect it to settle much

this also means that my jeep is about the same height as 03kjsport with a JBA 4in lift on it... why do they advertise the frankenlift as a 2.5inch lift when it's clearly more?

Not sure why that is, because it is 4" for me before it has settled. But either way it is a sweet lift. You run 265/75/16 tires right?
My kj doesn't fit in my garage anymore, so the measurements I took were on my inclined driveway. Maybe I should redo them and see if there is a difference.

yeah in fact. yours troys and tomms are all in the same ball park as mine. i gotta say i kinda feel cheated. but when i look at all three of your kj's im like,, well, they look killer. then im like. well, i guess mine does as well. only difference is a few benji's i blew. ill just have to trim my flares about two inches to get on top of you guys :wink:
