Installed a lift kit today. Kings springs, Bilstein shocks and Moog isolators.

Looked under the hood to discover the high-pressure pump is leaking at one head and at the input lines. Sweet, more work, at least seals are cheap.

Compared to stuffed old shocks - firm-ish but okay. Have not been off-road yet.

The biggest thing is the NVH reduction, which I attribute to the new isolators. Huge improvement.

For the money the new idolaters make a big difference. I ended up putting OME shocks back in mine, specifically the newer sport variety.

So far I've been pretty happy with them, but I haven't done any real dirt work so I'm not sure how they'll go.
