Default info on adding a 1" M.O.R.E.

I currently have a 2.5" suspension lift and I am interested in adding a 1" m.o.r.e. I would like to do the work myself and was hoping that some of you would share your thoughts as to what I should keep in mind. Is there anything other than the lift that I need? Brake lines, track bars, etc? Thanks in advance.

The MORE kit is complete. There is nothing else you need. I installed mine in my driveway by myself in about 1.5 hours.

That's it besides basic hand tools...socket/wrenches etc.

You have a manual so may have to trim for shifter clearance, do a search, this has been talked about. I have auto and it was straight forward.

Just pay attention to the larger bolts. I need to review the instructions, but I'm pretty sure MORE had the two larger rear bolts in the wrong position. The larger bolts on my 08 was the very last two bolts near the bumper, not the 2 near shocks.

" M.O.R.E." is Mountain Offroad Enterprises in CO, they make body lifts( among other things) for Jeeps. The body lift is simply a spacer put between all your factory body mounts bushings and the body to lift the body from the frame rails 1". It's pretty simple lift for cheap.
