I'm sticking with the moabs for sure... Can't sacrifice that much mpg for a daily driver. Off topic, but I didn't want to start another thread in the lift section.
Calling woodys 4x4 yeasterday, I talked to a guy and scheduled to have a 2.5 ome lift put on next week. He said to go with medium and he could have the kit in by Friday. I call them today and talk to another person to clear some things up and a little confirmation. He tells me he has no idea about the job... No notes no nothing... And by the way, ome only sells a 1.5 lift and the 2.5 the other guy was selling you doesn't exist. My blood pressure rose a bit and confusion started setting in.
If you guys could clear this up for me before I go in and talk to them after work that would be great. The guy said skyjacker sells a 2.5 kit... But I see everyone saying the 2.5 ome that doesn't exist is the way to go lol.
You have to understand that most every 4 wheel drive shops etc DOES NOT KNOW jack about lifts for KJs. Not bragging but I'm sure we've put through more KJ lifts in my garage than a lot of all the shops in larger cities have.
We know here and on LOSTJEEPs what works/ what doesn't / if you add this and that it will be so high/ if you go with that you'll be sorry. So trust us when we say how much lift one will get, what to use etc
Two sources/companies know KJs, Jeepinbyal and AllJs , period those two only when you need parts.
Skyjacker does sell a 2.5 inch kit but I'll bet the guy trying to sell it to you doesn't even know the spring rate which is 310 lb, same as stock and will sag.
So yes you will get 2.5 inches from the OME, more if you do a clevis and top plate but then you'll need JBA UCAs. Go with OME 927/948 combo, 98% of what we have installed here was this setup
