    5 grand in your pocket is irritating? OK, believe as you will. You'd be going home $1,000.00 lighter if you had the guts to back up your talk.

    Both. Never over torqued mine. Never had a problem.

    Anything to get away from the coil debate, eh?

    I could go along with that if we didn't have so many local rigs running that body lift for so many years- our own included. I will say that I always torqued them to feel though. No excessive "squish" and many years of service. I've not had a single one fail yet on any of these rigs around...

    Loc-tite definitely matters on bolts that aren't being tightened that much.

    So what you're saying is that the bolts were punching into the metal and you didn't notice that there was any resistance there? Let me guess- you hammered all the bolts down with an impact, huh? Don't tell me you were using a torque wrench and torqued to 30-35 ft lbs, which are what the...

    We've actually had rigs in magazines, so I have the numbers. Thanks though.

    Now you're starting a whole different discussion. First, there are different poly body lifts on the market. Some are actually a honeycomb if you look at the ends. They are not solid poly. These will most certainly collapse over time- or even quicker if some monkey overtightens them. JKS...

    Pretty simple really. We get a bone stock TJ and install one of our kits on it. We'll first install the heaviest OME coils and drive it around. We'll net somewhere around 3" of lift. The more people the better here, so there's no room for error or speculation. We can gather a large group of...

    Bitches don't bet 5 grand against 1 grand. Bitches talk.

    Yeah, you're right. What do I know. Only installed hundreds of the JKS body lifts as well. Never had a single issue. Surely your situation must be the more truthful one. After all, it couldn't be installer error, ehhh?

    He had 2942's in back. Currently running light- soft top, no spare tire. Not planning to carry anything heavy. I sent him a pair of lighter rate 2941 coils and some spacers to play with to sit it where it was before. BTW- we are talking about a 20lb spring rate difference here, which has been...
