So my 17004's were shipped today.

Time to get the springs

Front:OME927 ($144/pair thru 4wheelparts)
Should these be the front that I get??

Rear:skyjackerLIB25r ($130/pair at 4wheelparts)

Is this the cheapest site?

 

[Vranes17]

I read the skyjackers have a lifetime warranty. What is everyones opinion? Should i go OME all around or?

 

[Vranes17]

OME all around, like me.

An I found out you ordered the 505's a couple hours after I did.
I got the second to last pair.

sweet!

 

[Vranes17]

I dunno..this sounds pretty good..

yeah i saw that, but it still does not answer my question unless your silently hinting dont get them because no one has ran them? If so what are the OME number springs to get for the front and back again, im too lazy/drunk to search right now

 

[Vranes17]

So what would be my best bet for springs? I want the highest lift. For now I dont plan on puttin an ARB on unless i come across a killer deal. Next weight mod would be a backbone+ winch. But that wont be until later summer/fall

 

[Vranes17]

Now im confused....

 

[tommudd]

Not going to argue the point, only thing I will say is I have bought several sets over the last 5 years, ARB sends me new catalogs every six months, and it says Mediums.
Now this could go into the type of discussion, does a KJ have shocks or struts in the front.
BUT lets all agree that for the rear the "heaviest " spring they make is the 948 and let it go

 

[Atrus]

Right Tom - I don't give a rat's a** what anyone wants to call them. Call them "Super Awesome ***** Dropper Duties" for all I care...I just want to make sure we're all talking the same spring and on the same page in these discussions so I (and others) can order the correct pairing of front/rear for my usage.

We probably should refrain from the HD/LD talk and just call them by number.

 

[Vranes17]

So for my gas kj, what is the number for front and rear no ARB bumper ,possible winch, all this talk is freaking confusing me.

[2003renegade]

i got them for 350 shipped. for all 4

 

[Vranes17]

Its actually 5$ more there for just the fronts

 

[2003renegade]

150 for the front? JBA has one at 80. so two would be 160.

 

[2003renegade]

wow im sorry. the shipping for JBA is super cheap. looks like I got screwed. dang

 

[Vranes17]

JBA was $180 and some change for shipping and that place was $185 and some change shipped.

 

[2003renegade]

ya i see that now that i compare the two. good eye for the deals you have

if you have a 4wheelparts store around.....305 shipped to the store is the best i could find. but like i said in other posts, the skyjacker has a higher spring rate for the rear and a life-time guarantee and its $30 cheaper for the rears.

Ive got the OME/Rancho Combo up front with a daystar plate and a .75" poly spacer (my own frankie). I am waiting on my tax refund check to pair it up with the Rear Skyjackers (LIB25R).

 

[Vranes17]

Ordered them the other day should be getting them in tomorrow.
