OME CRD lift questions

How well do the HD OME springs work with the CRD? All-J states that the stock springs are better so what gives almost everything is deisel down under wouldent they have the know how to build the right springs for a CRD liberty. I'm done experimenting with lifts so I need as much info as possible before I commit to anything else but I would really like to go with a full OME lift on my liberty(even if it means not being able to have an ARB bull bar and a winch)so any thoughts on this from people who actually have this lift would be great. thanks

I dont have any issues with my OME CRD springs. No sag here, and I just put on a new steel bar - still no sag, but put on a 45-50kg winch; that's another story....... i'm running the 927's + a 8mm front strut plate - best combo i've seen

Nice KJ man, Exactly what I want to do with mine, can you give the the details of your lift on how you got a full 2.5" of lift with all that extra weight? I understand the OME lift is only 1.5", what spacers did you use and did you have to use more then 1" of spacer lift to achive the 2.5" of overall lift? and how much trial and error was there in the process? BTW what turbo timer are you using? I know I know soooo many questions lol

Why did you say that your diesel had more torque than a hemi? The hemi has 370ftlbs of torque. You know that, right?

so there was a little trial and error.... but i endeed up working out the ome hevy duty suspensuon kit with 1'' polimer strut spacers and .5'' polimer spacers in the back... after a couple of screwups that is what seemed to work best for me... The turbo timer i use is an Apexi auto timer.. the link is http://www.apexi-usa.com/product_electronics_detail.asp?id=198&pageNum=1 i like it ... its small and discrete.... i hide it behind directional.

Did you have any problems with the sentry key security system overriding and shutting the engine off after the key is removed?

nope works fine... the sentry key security system is only for the initial starting of the car... it needs nothing to keep it running
