Hey guys in a couple of months I'm thinking of getting OME coil springs and Bilstien shocks for my 2003 KJ i really wana get a good 3" lift on it, what else do i need to do to acheive this??
I will put some big BFG AT tires on 245 or 265/75/16 might change the stock limited rims ( 16" ) to soft 8's

Thanks for the info. will do this end of march.

Whats the difference between the bilstien shocks for the rear?
Rear Shock = F4-BE5-A702-HO/ F4-BE5-6458-H7

and Front shock = F4-BE5-D916-HO this is the correct one right or is there a better one? just want to make sure.

If you are new to lifting a vehicle I would suggest looking for a complete kit. It can sometimes me more difficult to try and piece one together. If you aren't sure what it is you should be looking for it would probably be easier to search for a 3 inch lift kit and look through all the various ones to find the most complete kit. If you look at Rocky Roads Rockfather lift kit's they seem to have everything you need. Looking at it will give you ideas of what all you are going to want even if you don't get that particular lift.

I wasn't recommending his lift....just to use it as a template of what was needed for a 3 lift.

Ja cool will check it out, got the basics down - coil springs and shocks but got confused now.
For the front shock do i get a stock one ( bilstein - D916 - H0 ) or something else cos the front will be lifted as well???

i see that you can use different bilstien shocks 7100 with resivor remote etc - now what would be the better to use for desert and not so hectic mountain terrain???
