BDS / Bilstein 2" lift
Well the issue was never resolved. it seemed to maybe be an issue with that specific model of KJ. I compared the suspension setup with some other KJ drivers and it was quite a bit different. So I came to the conclusion that it was not really stock. I sold my KJ and got a Suzuki Jimny. Think...- Havok

Thanks for the suggestions guys. The arms are touching the springs, there is a bit of paint off. So I guess I can sort that out with the a arms. The sound is not a gong sound though. It's really a harsh thud. So I will check with the chalk - good tip. Thanks again for the help so far...- Havok

I have a problem though when i go over speed bumps (not even at too much speed.) - there is a hard "thud" noise from the front. They seem to think it might be the control arms touching the spring (i still have the stock...- Havok

We have them here in South Africa. Def. not a good as OME or BDS. But not bad. The ride is much harsher than OME and BDS. I'd say it;s a mid level lift option.- Havok
