Finally Got it Lifted. OME927/948 Rancho 9000xl Shocks and Struts, 3 Conduit nuts (all you can fit with 9000xl Stuts more would hit the adjuster) 1/4" strut top plates, 1 extra upper and 1 extra lower rear Isolator. TerraFlex front bump Stops, and custom Rear rubber bump Stops.

Waiting on My 31's to arrive. I have Soft 8's that are just itching for abuse.

It was at 17 3/8" Front and 18.5" Rear
Now its at 22.5" Front and 23 1/4" Rear

Welcome aboard!

It's always nice to see another lifted Red Limited on here.:D Next time I'm in Moncton, I will have to keep an eye peeled for you. Our Red KJ's are a rare breed.....Chrysler made lots of Black & Blue & Khaki colored KJs...but the super sexy ones left the factory in a nice Flame Red. :D

Thanks, Yeah I guessed the color isn't all that Popular. Mine was the first I had seen in PR4 Red. I'm pretty sure that there is another Flame red KJ in PEI that's lifted too I've seen it here at the champlain Mall 3 or 4 times. It's an 02 Has rear drum brakes. one time I waited for the owner for almost 2 hours went for a coffee came back and it was gone :mad: What is your lift? Franky? OME? Rusty's? There are a few Spacer guys around I've met but they probably couldn't even get a 245 under there flares.

I have a Mutt lift....front springs are OME (which need replaced) and my rear springs are Rusty's...with OME stuts/shocks. It works good, just the front is a sagging. Waiting on some $$$ to get replacements. I've only seen 1 other lifted KJ in town here...a green Limited.

If I were you, I'd strongly consider the OME 790 Diesel front coils.
I have a Frankeift with H/D OME front springs and after 27 months I have only 2.5 inches of lift and that's with 16 mm of clevis lift!
That's with a 9.5 K winch and Backbone winch mount.
The ARB front bumper alone weighs in at 80 lbs. add a winch eventually (or maybe you already have one fitted?) and it'll be even heavier than my setup.

You will also need a pair of Teraflex extended front bump stops.
Just food for thought!
