That will work thanks

 

N211 & N212. They're the ones for 0-2" lifts.

 

You're welcome.

 

Thanks....I will be ordering these shortly.

 

Nice comparison.....thanks.

I always kind of chuckle when people start talking about ride height changes between different lifts. The main reason being that you never know how much lift you are going to get unless you manage to find someone with the exact same before and after setup you have/want yourself.

Even with my 32" MTs on, my JK looks like a midget compared to every other JK I park next to because it is a 2-door, soft top, with no tow package. From the factory, that gives me the weakest springs available on the JK. It makes it look short even parking next to the stock Sahara's at the dealership. I can only imagine how much actual before/after lift I'm going to get when I go ahead and toss a lift on it. If something like an OME lift is giving Rubicon's a 3" lift, thats going to give me what.......a 4-5" lift....LOL. Old lady will be bitching something fierce about crawling into something that high

 

If you talk to the suspension kit vendors here online and/or David @ Northridge, they can tell you pretty much the lift you'll net for whatever kit you choose. In the OME line they have several heights/weights to choose from that will give you as much as you want, taking into account everything from 2 door soft top to what bumpers you have.

Personally, I just wanted a modest boost so the Jeep will still fit in my Haulmark and I didn't have to worry about different arms, bars, or shafts.

 

Will I need to do anything with the bump stops or are the stock ones going to be ok. I plan on using stock Rubicon shocks for a while and then replace with the OME ones mentioned in the previous posts.

Thanks

 

Also anything with the brake lines. I really don't see myself wheeling a ton and putting the Jeep and full flex. Pretty much DD.

 

You'll be fine w/ OEM bumpstops until to put on bigger tires. Then you might want to limit uptravel to keep them out of your fenders (or trim the fenders). I did have to "adjust" my rear brake lines, but since I have EVO Rockstars I have more droop than stock. Using stock shocks, they'll limit your droop so you'll be fine. Check that nothing is being stretched, though, when you put on the OME's before you do any wheeling.

 

I am running Hardtop Unlimited Rubi Shocks and Springs on my 2dr X. Love the way it sits. Its a temporary solution until I get a real lift.
