Ironman 2 inch lift thoughts? (1 Viewer)

[cc93cruiser]

Just ordered a Medium Duty 2" lift for our 71 fj40 and was wondering if anyone on here is running the same lift?

I searched for pics/threads on Ironman Fj40 lift here on MUD and could not get much info. Any thoughts vs OMEs or Dobinsons'?

If I were doing mine again, or got another Cruiser, I would go with the Dobinisons IMS lift. Tons of good reviews and positive feedback here on Mud.

Did you get your Ironman Lift installed?

Sorry for super late response, no I have not had the time. It will be going in during my Christmas break pretty soon, I will be sure to add pics and thoughts then..

I recommend getting the anti-inversion shackles. Their leaf springs are the same length as stock… but with more arch; in other words they are too short.

These are 78 Troopy springs.
The stock ones had 40k Miles on them.

My kit came with front and rear anti inversion shackles... Will this fix springs too short issue? Dang I need to install these on the 40 already
