WHAT ?????? Man talk about taking someones words and twisting them up till you only have a terrible soup . Geez
No one has said these things, that was my point.
You are so very wrong about so many things but now confusing others as well.
IF you use say all 4 OME springs you will have the same height front to rear
You will have the same ride height, yes, but not the same suspension height. As an expert, tom, I'm sure you know the difference and indeed the actual spec, but for others that do not know it is the ratio, generally expressed as a percentage, of travel distances, numerator being distance from ride height to full droop and denominator being full travel distance. For the 927s without an extended bumpstop that figure is about 17% per my measurement,. If you tack the extended bumpstop on there the number will go up, but only because travel is reduced, the 1 inch of droop is the same. That accounts for a droop of 1 inch on a travel of 6 inches. That's little enough to cause loss of tire contact on road variations and incidentally the reason you recommend longer shocks on the rear. If you think about it, if you need longer shocks on the rear for x amount of lift, you need the same amount longer shocks on the front too, and for the exact same reason. Stock is about 55% for front and rear. 948 with Durango shocks give about a 50% suspension height for the rear.
IT will NOT cause erratic response to road variations
Different suspension heights will cause the front to respond differently (erratic) to rears on the same bump (variation). Maybe not all the time, but that just makes it more erratic. Good luck finding anywhere that recommends two different suspension heights. Honestly, I should have known better. Smelled wrong from the start, but "expert" and "many unnamed people" got to me, I guess.
ROAD handling will be far better not degraded due to higher center of gravity
What?! You cannot be serious right now! Lower COG always gives better handling, which is why race cars are lower than RVs, sports cars are lower than sedans, and Jeep engineers lowered the COG in 2003 to prevent rollovers!
Doesn't cost anything more
Never said it did. Not sure even what "it" is here.
We've done enough lifts here to know what the pros and cons are and what you are describing is simply not true at all and am sure many others feel the same way
Then please tell us what you believe the cons are because it seems like you say it will be all cornflakes and candycanes, the higher the better!
Then jeepinbyal does not make anything on shipping, the cost is what it is from point A to point B
Who said otherwise?
Maybe we can take up a collection and buy your parts back so you can install your worn out parts back on and be happy:mwah1::happy175::Bye:
I'll keep the front shocks, but I'd let everything else go for $450...price may or may not lower as I try to make the most of the lemons.
