I have a set of Skyjacker J20's (2.5 lift) put under my 85 CJ but it's not road ready yet. What problems have your buddy's had?

everything from bent springs to wrong size eyelets, maybe you lucked out, hey those are beefy springs , did you reweld your spring mounts??

Nah, the front end got a M.O.R.E. spring reverse setup (it adds about ¬? lift in the front) using some heavy plate (5/16 ‚Äì3/8?) and removes the rear spring perches. I welded in their 1/4" frame plates to stiff'n it for the future winch. I hate bending frames!! Took nothing to MIG the plates in, but drilling the 3/4" holes thru the plate and frame for the rear shackle bolt guides ate up my hole saw :lol: All the other fittings for brakes and shock towers were pretty much in the stock positions.
