OME 2927 Spring Install
The clevis only goes on one way - the bottom of the shock has a raised line in it that lines up with the groove in the clevis - just helps to keep the shock assy from turning, but if your top plate isn't lined up correctly with the groove the clevis won't line up with the bolt hole in the lca.- derekj

Sourcing lift kit/components in Canada
T-Dot performance sells OME - Essex distributors in Vancouver sells H&R and Bilstien - they usually have discount codes too. Ironman has some good prices when they do their 25% off coupon - last time I checked the whole Ironman kit was about $1200 in shipped to my door in BC. And of course there...- derekj

They were sooooooo far overdue for a redesign - good to hear that your experience has been positive so far. Maybe with these new improvements they can take back their spot at the top of the A/T food chain.- derekj

Engine runs rough after an hours worth of driving
If your fuel trims are that high it means your engine is running lean - trims that high should flag lean codes.

What did you do to your jeep today?
Most of my career has been working in independent shops where we didn't turn work away unless we were just too busy or the car was a real pos. So coming into a dealer environment after that was a bit of a shock. Usually dealers don't like working on anything that is more than 10 years old, but...- derekj

What did you do to your jeep today?
This bugs me :mad: - shops just looking for the easy stuff - LAME!!! I only turn down work in my shop if it is a F550 service truck as we don't have a hoist big enough to pick them up. I run a shop at a Ford dealer and the newest truck in the shop today was a 2010. This isn't normal for us but I...- derekj

Front end Qs re new KJ
If you don't want to lift it you can just buy a set of quick struts from Monroe - it is the whole front spring/shock assembly ready to bolt it - no spring compressor required. https://www.amazon.ca/Monroe-171577R-Quick-Strut-Complete-Assembly/dp/B0035R3X68- derekj
