Trobow's Lift

[Lima.Charlie]

Yes exactly.....2 = the stock one.

Trowbow -

Just to confirm...

You have OME 927/948's
4 conduit nuts and a 3/8" spacer in the front
2 extra (total of 3 per side) isolators in the rear

Anything I am missing?

What size tires are you running?

Rig looks really great, just getting a feel for what was done and what mine would look like.

 

[Lima.Charlie]

OME 948's/927's
Rancho RSX 17004's and 17505's
Boilers 3/8 spacer in the front
4 ring clevis
2 extra rear isolators totalling 3 per side
2 pucks per siude in the rear as bumpstops
Spider trax Wheel spacers

The spacers widen your wheel base by 2.5 inches.


Most likely will be pulling a nut in the front sometime soon if it doesn't settle more. Not sure yet. Everyone's setlles differently so, I would plan on four. you can always take them out and it is super easy.

I am running 265/70 16.

Damn, that's hot. Where can I get one?

 

[Lima.Charlie]

They sure did! Dropped it off on Monday and was done Friday.

It is greasable and should last quite some time!

 

[ptsb5a]

Cool man, thanks for the link. U-joints IMO would beat CVs hands down for the front DS.

So what did you do, drop off your driveshaft and have them replace the cvs on both ends with U-joints? And, how much did it cost? Thanks!

Post up some pics with your new tires. Any issues with the spacers and that size of tire ? I will be doing the same lift next month and want to run the 265/75 mt's on the stock rims. Already got the pinch weld taken care of just hope I don't need to trim anything else.

Can't speak for Trobow, but they only did one end on ThunderbirdJunkie's driveshaft (the rear joint) saying they've never needed to replace a front joint on a KJ front driveshaft.

Humm, maybe i should consider this for my bad front DS, gotta find a place like it in Cleveland.
If you don't mind sharing, how much did it run you?

 

[ThunderbirdJunkie]

Gonna let trobow answer that since ThunderbirdJunkie was asked to not go blabbin it, but it was ~$200.

See if that works (rotflmao)

 

[Lima.Charlie]

~$200

Pictures are of the after portion of the lift....

Be careful about going 265/75.....from what I hear....bad news and loss of power

 

[ptsb5a]

What bad news???? I've been running 265/75R16 on my stock wheels and 31x10.5x15 on my off road wheels. Haven't had any bad news with either in the 50+ K miles that they've been on.

 

[Lima.Charlie]

Thats why I said...from what I hear....

You got me all excited, but its not even a real website
I will look into shops around here but I likw knowing a satisfied customer before diving in myself.

 

[resistance]

Trobow, that looks really cool.. Also making me thinking of getting shims and rear isos for another inch more..

You know what people who have already lifted want.. More lift

 

[Lima.Charlie]

Problem I had with 4 clevis was I tore a couple of CV boots. Now with only 2 Clevis...I still sit high but no more torn boots.

 

[Lima.Charlie]

I have had the worst luck recently. My A/C condensor went out....so no A/C and the old womans Stratus needs springs and struts.
