 New to the jeep mod world and was wondering about the adjustable spring mod. Seems simple to install even though they require welding in the rear? Any information would help!!

Curious to...thought about getting these to go with an OME lift....that way I'd be prepared for sagging...

I have them in the front only. The fronts just bolt in. Real simple to adjust. Just let the tension off the spring and undo a set screw and dial them where ever you want. It saves removing the springs and guessing how big of spacer you would need. I can't comment on the rear install but the rest is the same. I will add that when I put these on the front it lifted my OMU lift enough to cause my axle to move over, so I needed an adjustable track bar to bring it back to center. This may also be something to consider if doing the back. They will get you close to a 4" lift.

I have them front and rear. Its a great setup if you dont plan on going with a spring lift later on. With Rancho 9000x adjustable shocks and remote control the ride is better than stock  |

I believe Drednot meant the ACOS can be used without having to buy a taller spring lift kit also. If you notice Moneypit's setup, he has the 2.5 OME lift with the ACOS on the front to compensate for the heavier bumper and winch. So you could add it to your BDS lift to level it out or add height. Somebody correct me if I have it all jacked up.

I have the 2" BB, and the front was sagging from the winch, so I added the ACOS instead of teh front 2" spacer, and it allowed me to level the Jeep, and keep the stock springs.
I added the JKS dssconnects at the same time.

Sorry for the misunderstanding. What I meant was that if you were planning on going taller later , these spacers are the most expensive temporary lift when compared to a budget boost.
They can be used with spring lifts no problem. Just keep in mind that they give 1+" of lift at min adjustment
I did have the rears welded in per the instructions.
