The TH and 4x4 use taller springs than FWD models which may have something to do with this. The only reason the TH is slightly higher than the rest of the 4x4s is due to the .5" taller (and narrower) tires. Side note, I see that you're in TX, we have a huge meet coming up April 8-9 in and around the Austin area. Not sure if you're on Facebook as a member of Renegade Owners Of Texas
Oh, I'm not a member but thanks for the info, I'll look it up on Facebook. Sent from my iPhone using ToasterJeep mobile app
An establishment in Sparks, NV quoted me $1350.00, for the kit, labor, alignment, and tax out the door for the Daystar.
Yes, I was taken back by it too. $60 alignment, 6hrs labor and tax. I'm guessing shop labor rate is $150 an hour. The only upside is warrantied labor. I will be spending a weekend in doing it myself with a friend of mine. Probably going to document the mod, to give a real account of doing this in a small garage using jacks and stands.
That insane Over here in NJ at Globex Performance we charge 4 hours of labor to install this kit, With no experience, I could see shops starting out at 5 hours of labor...ei Parts+Labor+Alignment+tax comes out to $930.90 over here.
That's a lot better price I was quoted $1100+ and they are saying 8 hours Sent from my iPhone using ToasterJeep mobile app
Got an email today saying that the lift is shipping first week in April. Almost here... Pre-purchase price from them at $470 USD.
Let us know how the lift goes, both installation and performance. Best of luck! Sent from my iPhone using ToasterJeep mobile app
Not sure if anyone is on facebook but they gave our group Jeep Renegade Life a discount promo code for 10% off. Promo Code is jeeprenegadelife... I ordered also and will be swapping out my Daystar Lift
Hey guys, with this lift do you think it would be possible for a 245/xx/R17 tire?(I think it would be 245/70/R17 but not sure) I wanna try for a 30" tire when I swap my stock
On the ATP demo rig they put 245/65 R17. I know they put their wheel spacers on, but I don't know anything about what the spacing was or if the wheels had a factory offset.
Okay cool, I'll look more into it later. But this should mean I can keep my trailhawk rims and just find a new rim for my spare. Definitely cheaper than a whole set of 5 that may or may not fit

Stock vs Daystar vs ATP. ATP really gave a the extra clearance and level look I'd been wanting. Super happy with the way it turned out Sent from my iPhone using ToasterJeep mobile app
Maybe it's just the angle but the second picture looks taller than the third? Is that one really the daystar and not the ATP? Also where did you get it installed if you don't mind me asking?
It's the angle and tires... those were the stock tires on the stock rims that I dipped black... I need to get a better pic in a lower perspective and it's much more noticeable Sent from my iPhone using ToasterJeep mobile app
