    Help with front too high after OME install

    Ready for upgrade v2 :) Got these shipped to my door in 2 weeks for $398 CAD after everything from Essex Distribution in Canada, but they actually ship from Washington state so probably even cheaper for the Americans here. (The OMEs were $650 CAD from Amazon/Tdot) H&R Springs In Box 2020 by...

    HOW TO: Pound pinch welds, stop fender rubbing...

    I did exactly that last month and it worked out well for me. I used a 2lb hammer but wished I had a 3lb... It takes quite a lot of hitting at it. Like 50 wacks per side I found. Like Tom says, start your cut wider than the extruded part at the bottom. Heat it up lots with a heat gun and then a...

    When off the gas, not decelerating as normal

    I'm having a very similar issue, but not initiated by cleaning anything. To be clear, was your Liberty not doing this rev-hang prior to cleaning your throttle body + IAC + MAF ? Mine is showing crazy bad rev-hang. Warming up makes no difference. I'm not sure if its especially bad in 1st and 2nd...

    Help with front too high after OME install

    Hey, do you folks use the lower spring isolator in the assembly ?! Or let the bottom of the spring rest on the aluminum plate?? (See OP photo)

    Help with front too high after OME install

    Yea sorry I meant springs. They cost $260 CAD from a vendor here, ordering direct from ARB USA. But freight and boarder customs will be significant. Vendor estimates ~$400. I spoke with ARB USA but they can't really help. They just scolded me for not following their "application guide" which...

    Help with front too high after OME install

    Have you by chance seen the 790's and 927's in person? Wondering if they look almost identical or not... I sent an email to ARB, but doubt they can help... I don't think the springs are engraved at all and I can't measure the free height once assembled to the shock of course. Considering...

    JKS Sway Bar Disconnect Kit

    Interested in the longer term review. How difficult is it to re-align each time when connecting again? Are they same dimension as stock or a little longer?

    Help with front too high after OME install

    Ok so this project is driving me BANANAS!! I took the two clevis spacers out today. When putting it back together I lined everything up (clevis bolts and sway bar bolts) but left them lose; I mounted the tire and dropped the vehicle. I then jumped on the hood a bit and shoved the car from the...

    Help with front too high after OME install

    Thanks for replying man. Exactly. Though those conduit nuts look like more than 1/8" each to me but yea, close enough. It was aligned by someone who regularly aligns lifted vehicles. Maybe an extreme adjustment was made which is trowing things off... they could not get the camber even close to...

    Help with front too high after OME install

    I should also mention that I painted the springs red. They are OEM 927's and originally black.

    Help with front too high after OME install

    Hey all, I had OME springs and OME/Bilstein shocks installed last week with the help of a local offroad shop. I'm having problems with the front and could really use some suggestions for specific things to try... They are 927 springs with two conduit nuts per side, which is about 3/8" of...

    Actual Lift Amount - Lets Compare Fender Heights

    Actually, I just re-measured on flat ground. Front drivers 22.5" Front passenger 23.25" Rear drivers 22.0" Rear passenger 23.0" Will re-tighten sway bar link and clevis bolt tomorrow whilst on the ground. Hopefully that is it! Also will probably remove one of the clevis spacers in the front...

    Actual Lift Amount - Lets Compare Fender Heights

    Installed 927 and 948 springs last week. 3/8" clevis up front and one extra iso in the rear. The CV boots are looking very bunched-up and unhappy. Also UCA rubs on spring during high compression. Must have messed up a ball-joint during the work because there is a terrible knocking happening up...

    What did you do to your jeep today?

    Replaced the gas lifters for the hood and rear window. They cost $25/pair on Amazon, "Box" brand, I would recommend them. Quick swap with a small flat-head screwdriver.

    Replacing BFG's

    I was in that very same predicament with the Falken AT3W... E or XL rating. Some local offroad guys who have tons of experience with different tires told me quite plainly that the ride quality of the XL (6-ply) was going to be noticeably better. I chose to believe them and went with that. Its...
