Is these parts correct for a 3'' budget lift?

Hi guys, i'm new to this forum, recently I bought a 2006 liberty ltd v6 4x4 with 66k km on it. I'm planning to lift it high enought to fit 265/70r16 on moab wheel. I have read many post in this forum to know that I want OME spring in my kit but I not ready to pay for a frankenlift at this moment, so do you guys think these part will give me a 3'' lift and do they work together:

OME927 and JBA-F4-BE5-D916-H0
BILSTEIN - Heavy Duty Front

OME948 and JBA-F4-BE5-6458-H7
BILSTEIN - Heavy Duty 2.5" Lift Rear

and adding this:
ComfortRide™ 1.5” Suspension Coil Spring Spacer Kit by Daystar - KJ09123BK

Thank you!

OME927 and JBA-F4-BE5-D916-H0 is the combo I just put on the front of mine with boilers 3/8 shims

I went from about 18-18.5 to 22-22.5 so overall 3.5-4.0 lift without even touching the clevis. So that's about where you wanted to be. I wouldn't bother with the spring spacers.


OME948 and JBA-F4-BE5-6458-H7 is the same set up I have planned for the rear. Might want to grab some iso's and you should be set. And keep in mind you have to build some brake line brackets for the back with that year.

Here is the link for the iso's and other stuff.

Do the springs shocks you have listed
but use a JBA top plate and 3 ring clevis in front for the best setup and will put you about 22.50-22.75 when settled in ( after a few thousand miles or a couple of off road trips)
rear two extra top iso's and the springs shocks you listed and it will sit level
19 inches is stock height so you can measure from there to see how much lift you end up with.
Don't use the Daystar spacers as it will give you too much lift. Yes the OME coils say 1.5 inches of lift but you get more than that so the above works great
Don't get caught up in the "I got got 4 or 5 inches of lift " mentality and think that is what you need to achieve, when you see they were sagged an inch or more to begin with

Thank you very much RexTheShocker and Tommudd, I'm searching the jba website and I can't find the top plate and the clevis ring you mention??? And do you think that 22.50-22.75 will give me enough heigh to put 265/75r16 (31.9") on moab wheel without rub, and I was thinking on putting an 1" wheel spacer too.

Clevis rings are 2 inch conduit nuts from any hardware store
Top plates are on his site I'll try and locate them
No need to run spacers with Moabs it will set the tire/wheel out too far and cause more issues with rubbing etc when turning and flexing. Also 265-75-16s???? ready to regear? If not its going to be a dog, and forget overdrive. Stick with 245-75s or 265-70-16s
page 3
Product ID: JBA-SSP025 Product Name: Strut spacer plate set Description: 1/4 inch steel plates 2 pcs per set Price: $27.92 More InfoNow what else ? ha ha

265-70s are basically the same height as 245-75s and the 265-70s work and look good on Moabs ( good width)
