Hi folks
Haven't been active here for couple of months but now I am finally lifting my 03' sport KJ + adding AT P255/70R16 tires. I recently hit 120k miles but engine is going strong (knock wood).
Currently ride is a bit little bumpy and car feels unstable on highways/turn/over 60mph. Not much sagging has occurred though. Goal is to add some ground clearance, improve ride, make her grip the asphalt better.
I live in the city so the the car is used mainly on weekends trips/grocery shopping/sometimes as DD (although my bike is my real DD). I'd say 90% road 10% off-road. Hope to increase the off roading amount once lifted (and shielded?).
I am considering two configurations:
OME or OME/Bilstein combo. On-road behavior, handling and comfort is important to me.
Here are my shopping baskets for the parts, would appreciate your verification:
Option 1 - OME:
Option 2 - OME/Bilstein:
One item that is not shown here for both options is 4 hockey pucks for rear bump stop replacement. Any other items I missed??
Do I need total of 4 upper isos btw?
What's the right config for me? Consider the ~200$ difference in favor of option 2.
Also if anyone's got recommendation on knowledgable NorCal jeep lift installer please speak.
Many thanks
