JEEP LIBERTY BUDGET REAR LIFT KIT INSTALLATION

[@everettcalhoun8197]

Installed the rear springs and spacers a little differently. Took the bottom bolt out of the shocks. Then compressed the springs down to 8 inches and wrapped the top coil and bottom coil with two HD loading straps to keep the springs compressed. Put the spring in the top pocket and held it there with a bar then slid the spacer with the cushion ring into place released the straps and all done. I don't recommend this way but it was the way I did it. Thanks.

I got a 2003 jeep liberty. Did you have problems with drive shaft. I put a 2 1/2 lift and now my drive shaft is short.

not that i've noticed but i do have a clunking in my sway bar when going around sharp corners i plan to do an update video but as usual i haven't had the time

Wow you really know how to make a fairly easy job look tough . That shock spacer goes in the shock bushing hole. Bet it took you longer to set it up on that lift then it took me to instal mine

@@JunkworksGarage Don't worry you will get mechanical geniuses that will tell you "I do that repair in 4 minutes and find out they have never repaired a vehicle in their life. Kudos to you for posting your work. The other thing that bugs me is these mechanical geniuses never have a video posted anywhere.

@@JunkworksGarage I was told to replace the rear shocks with Durango shocks when lifting the rear of the liberty because they are longer. Please advise.

@@everettcalhoun8197 the shocks that i used has been working fine for me but if you were going higher than 3" you would probably need something longer .
