I recently installed the tommudds econo lift from jba. i have noticed that the Jeep is raked slightly from the rear to the front :think:. is there a way to level the front to match. i used a 1/4" top plate, maybe I should have used 1/2" top plate any thoughts or comments?

That's a good question ... I wouldn't expect it to sit like that either. You don't have any extra isolators in the back right?

First time seeing a KK front suspension... interesting clevis.

Same here Luke! Hmmm, if you already have all of that done I would look into removing some extra rear isos if you have them like Luke just said

No Luke no xtra Iso's just the JBA springs and 5125 Bilsein shocks.friend from Lost Jeeps So cal said to give it 1k miles and let it settle then adjust the ride hieght. he also said I dont need to remove my swaybar. but my assend keeps coming off the ground when flexing.:uhoh2:

He is definitely right about the settling ... Don't know if it will happen in only 1k but then you do offroad your beast quite bit. It took more like 10k for my OME's to settle in the front .. not much change in the rear though. Only mild off road and two trackin' though.

We need Marlon to speak up here ... :D I'm pretty sure his is level.

Nope, mine has a slight rake. I like the rake and don't want it going anywhere. As a matter of fact, I have actually been unhappy with the amount of rake that I have and need 2 more Isos on the rear to bring it up more.

Just a thought: is that trailer pulling the bottom down a bit? Have some side shots for us? (I'm spoiled when I ask for photos. Just ask my girlfriend. ;) )
