Hi Wilmo,

I'm new to all this 4WD'ing and to help protect my new baby I just did the 2" OME lift on my 06KJ Renegade (Petrol) last week, based on what I've picked up from previous threads.

The measurements were as follows (standard front bumper):

___front_______front______front
683mm 682mm 755mm 753mm 72mm 71mm

689mm 695mm 755mm 755mm 66mm 60mm
BEFORE......AFTER.......DIFFERENCE

Before they submit the warranty form, I was told to do 500km then bring it back in for a check. This allows it to settle down to its final height.

Checking the boxes (with all my old bits) I have 948's on the rear and 927's on the front.

The ARB stockist quoted lifts of 30mm front and 30-40mm rear.

So, it will interesting how much it will settle after 500km. I've got a trip to the high country planned for the Queens Birthday weekend, so that should give it a good workout.

I'm also getting the set of 3 skid plates fitted today during its first service.

Stephen
