had my jeep on blocks yesterday doing some work which let the coils rest...
stock suspension 82,000 miles.
I got 19" exactly all around after I put it back on the ground. Less than a day later and I'm already back down to 18"

Hoping the Ironman lift with with 15mm trim pack will get me back up around 21, 21.5"

Sitting right around 18.5" front and back today. OME 927/948 lift with clevis, JBA top plates, and 2 upper isos will be installed tonight/tomorrow. Will report back.

stock suspension was at 17.75" in the front and 18.5" in the rear.

Ironman front/rear coils and shocks, 1 rear upper iso each side, 15mm trim pack on front struts...
Front: 21"
Driver Rear: 21.75"
Passenger Rear: 22"

I will be adding a 3/8" clevis soon to level out the front.

Still got you all beat:shrug:

After 18,000 miles with my lift I'm at 28" front and 27" rear.

This is probably a silly question because, well, I'm silly, but can you notice that 1" between the front and the back? I have no doubt you did it on purpose, I'm just curious to learn why?

Somewhere between being sane and insane!

Yes I can notice and yes done on purpose(well more like on accident) to put the rear(at ride height) in the middle of the shocks stroke.

I could just add those extra 2 rear upper isolators like I had in there to level it out more but the coils moved to much so they were removed.

ha ha makes a big difference doesn't it

Definitely does! I love it. I was at a parts store last night picking up a few things and the kid at the counter came out to look at my jeep...If you remember a while ago I said I had never seen a lifted Liberty near me before. Well apparently neither had he because he goes "Dude, is this thing lifted?? That's pretty :favorites68:'n' sweet" lol
