    Thanks for the replies, but this actually doesn't matter any more, because I've made up my mind and am going to get the Frankenlift. Matter of fact I wasn't able to contact All J until 4:00 yesterday, but Heather emailed me last night that even though today is Saturday she is going to call me to...

    Okay so I know that hockey pucks make perfect bump stops, but I'm wondering if these I found on Amazon would work. They are 2.2 inches and they are cheap enough and already have a bolt and nut attached so the only part to drill is a hole in the center of the spring perch...

    Via email I asked Marlin about getting the longer Ironman shocks for the rear and the following is his reply. "Tom, The shocks only control speed of the compression and rebound of the springs. (removes the energy and controls the ride quality) Longer shocks are needed for taller lift kits...

    Ironmans reportedly have a little better ride, are cheaper and it is possible to get the same height as with OME. Plus now I want to add a-arms which is going to increase the entire cost significantly. I would really appreciate your help. In speaking with JBA earlier he mentioned that if I go...

    Found a Shop Willing to Install OME Lift Now I Need to Pick Tires

    Okay I just got off the phone with JBA and I nearly pulled the trigger when he mentioned that I'll eventually, within 2-3 years, need new upper A-arms. If this is the case I'd rather get them done at the same time, but that will add significantly to my cost parts and installation. The JBA A arms...

    Found a Shop Willing to Install OME Lift Now I Need to Pick Tires

    Okay I'm about the pull the trigger on the lift. The only reason I'm not going with the Frankenlift is cost. So I've been looking closer at what is in the Frankenlift and wondering if I'd do just as well with either the JBA Iron man Lift kit or the OEM by adding either the Ironman or OEM struts...

    tommudd: I really appreciate this reply. Would I need to pound over the pinch weld if I were to get 235's instead of 245's? I have a partial disability in my right (Dominant) right hand and arm and it may not be possible for me to do this without hurting myself. Would I lose much performance...

    Found a Shop Willing to Install OME Lift Now I Need to Pick Tires

    Truthfully I do not know what I want the measurement to be I have only gone with the idea of a 2" lift, because someone I think it was here said that a 2" lift and 245 75 16's would make my rig do better off road. However, I do have a question about that measurement. The All J site indicates...

    So I'm going to be getting the OME Kit from JBA. When I told the gentleman at JBA I want the lift to be around 2" he said I needed a couple additional parts. So I share that to say I'm hopefully going to have a 2" lift. I've used the search function and read several threads and I'm still...

    Thank you for the info. So I just got a call from the Shop that I spoke to yesterday with a quote. Interestingly I was kind of surprised in that the quote was only for a spacer install even though he told me yesterday I'd need a full suspension lift. Pressed further for info on the full...
