Default Anybody installed Mopar 2" Coil Lift P5155207?

Anybody got pics/feedback on the Mopar P5155207 2" Coil lift system?

I don't want to start another debate on warranties, how they are rebadged aftermarket kits, etc, etc.....just wondering if anybody has actually installed it.

Thanks,
D

Default A friend

My friend got the lift installed last week. He thinks its great. However, he says that for the price he may switch up to the larger lift mopar put out and sell the one he has. I am hoping he sells it to me at a heavy discount. If you have any specific questions let me know and I can forward them along. (By the way I know you dont want to start a warranty discussion but I guarantee you have)

if it is more than $500 then I would pass on it. Probably a re labeled skyjacker kit

Thanks DMERK.

Did your friend happen to take before and after measurements?

I have a Mopar front bumper + winch & rear + tire swing on a 4DR Rubi. The stock springs are definitely taxed, looking for only about 2" lift with the bumpers, but better flex over stock.

Does your friend have any aftermarket installed?

I also can't find a copy of the install instructions anywhere. if he can make them into a pdf that would be great.

I will ask about the directions when I see him tomorrow. As for change in height. He had rubi 4 door shocks (I dont know how much sag you had since it varies) he had about a 1/2 sag in front and 1/4 in back with his setup prior to the install. He said that the new setup he gained about 1 and 3/4+ in front and a full 2 in back so he said he might but spacers in front to level it off.

I will give him a call see if he has anymore percise info.

BTW if price is not an issue I can tell you that he is very happy with it and I am not suprised (general concensus says its a rubicon express lift and they are known for good quality) so if you want mopar I would get it.
