      I put Rancho 5000 series in the front of ours. That could be the model number. I put them in with the diesel springs. They have done the...

      u2slow reacted to 02projectkj's post in the thread Broken top strut mount? Please help with Like Like.
      It’s no problem at all with the struts assembled but my problem is the top mount broke which effectively released the compression on the...

      u2slow replied to the thread Actual downsides to spacer lift.

      u2slow replied to the thread Deeke's upper control arms?.
      Several folks on here poo-poo'ed the RRO's arms too. They have been on our KJ for over 10 years now with no issues. This Deeke's arm...

      They are probably chevy balljoints that fit 10-15 model years of half-ton pickups. Thats what they are for my RRO arms. My balljoints...

      u2slow replied to the thread front tow receiver.
      Our KJ had some beefy brackets for a tow bar (quick release). Stock bumper unmodified. Maybe something like that could be used to mount...

      u2slow reacted to duderz7's post in the thread Alignment after clevis lift with Like Like.
