I have a question about the rake in the front of my '07. I have a 3" FT lift with PJ bumpers and warn M8000, and after 30000 on the lift, I'm starting to get some good drupage in the front end (and I hate front end drupage) I know some people are putting in spacers, is that a fairly decent fix for the problem or is that just a bandaid? ANY help will be appreciated. Thanks

 

i put a 2 in' bds spacer to lever off with the factor in fr

 

personally, i think 3/4" spacers is all that you need to compensate for the droop. a little bit of rake is something that i think looks right.

 

I have the rought country 2.5" on mine which is only a 2" in the rear and measured last night... still 1.5" in height difference...

 

A little rake is a good thing, especially if you ever load your jeep up to go on trips. I started with a 3" lift w/ HD springs in the front. When I'd load the jeep for a trip I'd get reverse rake and end up seeing blue out of the front windshield. I ended up adding 4" rear springs to get the rake back. That way I ride level on trips.

Better to take WayofLifes approach and be a little conservative. That way you can avoid a bunch of adjustments that are going to end up costing $$$ with no real gain.

 

When did you get your lift? When the FT first came out, heavy duty front springs were considered an option. Now there are the standard. You might contact the guys at FT to see if you can work out a deal if you originally got the softer front springs.

 

I have 3/4" spacers in the front with my 3" FT lift. It leveled it off somewhat. I think once my rear bumper and tire carrier come in that weight will bring the front end up some more.

 

take a profile shot and make a poll thread.

 

I got mine in march of 07, I might have to do that, I guess all you guys are right It's not bad right now it's noticable, but not bad, I just don't want it to be to much of a problem later down the road, I might take strong's option and call FT and see if I can get the HD springs.
