Lift advice thread # 13892

[Flip]

Thanks all! I am now pivoting and researching a Rubicon take off suspension (springs and the longer lower control arms.). It seems like it gets what I desire and I can also get new wheels/tires sooner rather than later.

I would look for springs from a Rubicon that had a factory hardtop but if you want a little more look for a set of springs from a Rubicon Xtreme Recon. Keep in mind you can always add a .5 - .75 Teraflex spacer when you install your springs to give it a little bump in lift, a lot of people install one in the front anyways to remove any forward rake especially if you're going to install a winch, which I recommend why? Because a winch is just badass on a jeep bro.

The install went very well, the LCA's were the hardest part, the bolts on those rascals were really tight and the axle wants to shift. I used a ratchet strap to line up the 2nd LCA. Important: make sure you tighten everything to spec or it will rattle like a BB in a beer can. This video helped me out a lot.

Best of luck on your install my friend.

Back to the drawing board (kinda). I decided a Rubicon spring lift is not what I am looking for.
Back to shopping lifts.
