Hi all. New member, first post.
I've been doing a ton of reading tonight trying to get an answer to this question.
I've got a 2006 Liberty Renegade that I've taken over from my wife. The first thing I noticed was how bad the ride was getting. Fender measurements are 18" front, 18 3/4" rear. Time for new springs and shocks.
I figured I might as well lift it a bit while I was at it. I'm no off-roader, but I live in the country in the snow belt and a little bit of ground clearance would be handy. I've got new factory assembled Coil-Overs coming for the front and extended "Sky Jacker Soft Ride" shocks and coils for the back that claim 2 1/2" of lift.
My question is, assuming I do actually get 2 1/2" of lift in the back, how thick would my "Over the Strut" spacer have to be to level out my lift at 2 1/2"? I instinctively want to say 2 1/2", but I'm positive I read somewhere that there's more math involved than that.
I apologize if this has been covered a bunch already, but please help the new guy out.
Thanks,
Tony
