A set of rear sway bar links and shocks is all you will need.

The OME and Jspec Coils are very similiar.

Can you tell us the lengths of the LCA's. I assume they are slightly longer than OE to reset caster for a 2" lift.

They are almost 3/8 of a Inch longer than stock . .3" longer than stock to be exact.

I ordered these to go with the OME lift I purchased from you. Waiting for them to be delivered.

Got the JSPEC front fixed lenght lower control arms install today. Super beefy arms and large oem style rubber inserts. Took about 40 minutes by myself.

Have a lift approx 2 3/4" front & 2 1/2" rear.

Using a cheap angle gauge (not needed for install) I had approx +3.5 degrees of caster with my oem LCA's.
After the install of the JSPEC LCA's I now have +5 degrees of caster. They are 23" eye-to-eye.

Now to what i think of them after driving about 40 miles of highway and curvy/bumpy mountain roads.

FANTASTIC! The Jeep had some mild flightiness, not now. Tracks really nice even with some wind gust on the way home.
Now for a side effect that I was not expecting. The ride is MUCH better when it comes to bad spots on the highway I drive over every day. The washboard roads I live on in the mountains are not as bone jarring as before. I believe this a combo of things. Since the axle is tilted back close to stock, the spring mounting pads are now where they should be. Which straightened up the slight bow in the springs. Which inturn I have a better gap between springs and sway bar end links. The large oem style rubber inserts absorb alot of axle-to-frame jarring/vibration.

I would recommend these to anyone looking for LCA's with a 2-3" lift.

Only down side is they had no instructions or stickers. Maybe Dave could look into that.

Thanks again Jedi Dave!

Can't wait to see pictures of these lifts on a JK. I would think it has be pretty close to the OME 2 and Teraflex 2.5 in looks. Not sure how the JSpec springs would perform, but their stuff all seems to be high quality.
