Where did you get the work done and what did the setup cost you. I guess with it being higher at the front compensates the level so you removed the stance?

Darren at Aztech4x4 did the work . the package with dobinson struts in the front was $1650 and around $500 to fit from memory . You can order from murchison through darren so any gear ordered from murchison gets sent to him saving on freight .

first photo pre lift when i bought it . you can't really see it due to shadows but due to the bar the front springs are sagging more than my 90 year old grandmother . second pic is post lift .massive difference in the front

They dont look as sag as I would have thought pre-lift, and that is with the bar.. Maybe its the effect of the smaller rims.

So your aim was to lift the fronts only to give it a better level and copy with the bar weight, yet retain the novimats for the towing capabilities.

i'm trying to find another pic but can't . the sagging was really bad in the front and also very sloppy so every speed hump etc or off road the front would bounce waay too much for my liking and would also dip badly under brakes .

lift was put in for ride quality and also ride height . As i gained substantial ground clearance post lift . TBH i am 3 months post lift and have absolutely no regrets . Places like powerlines have been eaten up with ease . Do i regret going dobinson and not OME ...no and i know the ome lift is shocks all round but until the nivomat's die i see no need to replace them

2" Front Lift spacer and 0.75" Rear. Before/After pics.

The link provided are for the fronts only. You can buy JK Wrangler(front) lift spacers for the rears. Ride quality so far feels stock, only slightly higher. Clearence should have also improved. 2.5in would be more hassle than these, as in removal of cv axles.

Those of you who have lifted your cars either lift spacers/RRO or Suspension Lift. Do you also change to aftermarket Swaybar end links?

I have got some creaks/knocking on all 4 corners when going on slightest bumps.
