Another Lifted LC w/ rear shock suggestion

[Aaron13]

Ordered the OME Med lift with diff drop. Here are the before and afters and a photo of how I removed the shock off. All in all it went pretty smooth. If you find yourself fighting with the rear shock. Take the sawzall to it, by far the easy and quickest method. Disconnect the shock from the bottom mounts. Have someone push the shock towards the front of the vehicle giving the saw a little more room and preventing it from binding up. 1 minute later wah lah!! EASY



Thanks to everyone on this site who contributes to all of the great information posted each day on this forum. It has been extremley valuable

The rake you see in the pic is a little exaggerated as my driveway sits on a slight slope. But overall I gain just over 2".

It would have been hard to remove that rusted nut anyway. Looks like you didn't change shocks too soon either.

yea those shocks were way overdue. vehicle was originally from Illinois so hard so pretty rusty bolts as you would imagine. Slowly but surely I am replacing them as I do various mods
