[Cardhu]

and by the way I by no means am selling lifts,
nor do I receive anything for advising anyone on which lifts to buy

I know, I know, I've got to be THAT guy (you know, the one that steps out for half a year at a time), but I'm thinking about going with this:

KJ Ironman 1.5" spring lift kit - Econo Lift Kits for the KJ - Liberty 2002-2007 (KJ)

Will I need anything else and how much lift will that actually yield? I am just trying to help the stance out and get some drive-ability back as I'm currently at 195k miles on the original stock components

Also, what size tire will I be able to fit with this and what tire/load range typically work well on these KJ's (looking at AT's as I'll put decent miles on it)?

If I'm completely missing the boat on this then let me know. As I said before, most of my rock crawling will be done in the JK. This lift is just to get better drive-ability and prowess for the rougher dirt roads.

Thanks again guys. You guys are great!:head3:

Should get 2.5 from new stock height
with that many miles on it you may end up with 3 or 4 inches
Should be good for 245-75-16s
