Post by deetz »

just curious who has dealt with them? i just recently got one, a 92 islander edition, how hard is it to install a lift kit on these things? and where can i take it to have it put on? its a rough country complete suspension lift with all new shocks, bolts, bushings and everything,

Not hard at all, air tools make the job alot easier, if not... be prepared to use a torque bar with shallow and deep sockets. Get some PB blaster and for sure soak everything down a few days before you do it, and spray it a couple times a day until you do the swap.

jeeps are easy, it's a 92 islander? 4.0 or the 2.5?

cool the motor will last forever as will the trans.

lift kits = easy on them if you take it easy on the bolts with PB blaster so you don't break shit.

I got my Wrangler new in 95, drove it for 15 years and then sold it. Other than regular maint. on it, I had to replace the radiator twice. Great vehicles IMO, other than the radiator plastic tops, and the bump steer.
