I have roughly 5.5in worth of lift on stock LCA's.(yeah i know FU PO) I am looking at rustys adj's one has flex joints and are a whopping 20 bucks more. But what are the pro's and cons. With and without the flex joints?

 

Flex joints tend to flex easier/farther, and last a little longer than bushings. Both would be a huge improvement over stock...HTH!!

 

Yeah i got a good deal when i bought it and i looked at him and said WTF were you thinkin!!

 

i have some from ironman4x4fab and cant complain. Andy is a good guy and will set you up with you need. If you wanna save a few bucks, tell him how much lift you have and he can make you a set of fixed uppers AND lowers for probably around what rustys lower adjustables cost or atleast close to it.

doesnt have fixed lowers on his site, but he can do them

 

ironman4x4fab=GREAT STUFF!!

 

How would one get in touch with the one you call Andy?

 

phone number is on the bottom of the link i posted

id say give him a shout tomorrow and see what he can do for you. I got a lot of parts from him and hes been helpful of any questions ive had.

 

Tell him you are on CF, and he will give you a bit of a cut off the deal too...

 

and make sure to tell him lift height, he has a chart of what exact length eye to eye measurements you will need to achieve correct caster

 

I PMed him. Would it be better to just call in the morning?

 

Call...

 

not sure how quickly he responds to PM's, but i received responses to his emails fairly quickly and same with the phone.

 

Good deal. I will just call in the morning. And as far as knowing exactly how much lift i have no idea. It looks like 3in with 2 spacers. But the PO said its a RE 3.5 with 2 spacers but the coils are red and the RE are silver from what i have seen.

 

Yeah, it could be a Rancho or Sky Jacker kit, hard to say. He will be able to take care of you.

 

measure from center cap to bottom of flare.

stock front is 17.5
stock rear is 17

just subtract those from what ever your distance is now and thats the actual lift.

if you dont have flares, well thats a different story :-p there are other ways, but you will need to look them up
