Stock should measure 17" from wheel center to fender.

jeeporiwalk · 11-19-2009, 02:35 PM

jeeporiwalk · 11-19-2009, 03:31 PM

well if stock is 17 inches and mine is sitting at 17 inches but the springs look almost inverted will new springs make it higher and not like a middle aged womans behind !!

Camrynz · 11-19-2009, 03:35 PM

my springs looked flat too so i stuck hockey pucks under the front and rear of the helper springs and that sat the rear end up 2-2.5 inches... it took all of 20 mins and cost me $4.38 at WalMart
