Helped clear 35's with my 4" lift. But had to trim inside to get into 2nd, 4th, and reverse. Wish they would let me know i had to trim before i started.

1.25" Body Lift on a 2006 Wrangler Unlimited
Date: Apr 16, 2007
Reviewer: A JeepReviews.com User from (Warrensburg, MO)

The instructions from JKS were great, and the installation went quite smoothly. As mentioned in other reviews, the front snubbers were a bit of a challenge to install, but removing the headlight housings, and pulling the snubbers up through the holes with heavy weed-eater string, made the job quite easy. I also installed the JKS 1" Motor Mount lift, so didn't have to relocate the fan shroud. JKS products are quality products!! (I'm also running their 'Quicker Disconnects'!)
 
 
High Quality Product

Reviewer: A JeepReviews.com User from (Mansfield, Texas)

I purchased and installed the JKS 1.25 inch body lift on my wrangler unlimited rubicon 05 model automatic. I dont wrench on my vehicle and did this myself. It was very simple with basic tools needed, socket set with extra extension, floor jack and block of wood. I also used blue threadlocker. The hardest part was moving the fan shroud. What i did is cut the fan shroud in 1/2 horizontal and mount the top portion in the original holes and pull out the bottom drill new holes 1.25" lower and remount. If you want an EASY and Inexpensive lift this is it and will allow for 32" tires.
 
 
Installed on 1994 YJ

Reviewer: A JeepReviews.com User from (Atlanta, GA)

I had a lot of problems removing the old body mount bolts. But after that was it a smooth ride. 5 hours installing both motor mounts and body lift alone.

I installed the BMML too. and are having problem getting into 2nd, 4th and reverse. It is caused by the rubber accordion binding. Right now running with loose rubber accordion.
 
 
JKS 1.25", 1" BMML
Date: Dec 10, 2005
Reviewer: A JeepReviews.com User from (Andersonville, TN)

The body lift took a little over an hour with two people helping. Much easier than I thought it would be. Did the 1" BMML at the same time so did not have to move fan shroud, or install the linkage bracket. Already had a T-case drop, so with the factory rubber "accordian" shifter, it would bind and I was unable to get into 2nd, 4th, and reverse. Bought the 05'+ shift boot from the dealer, and am tickled with it now.
 
 
JKS 1.25 BL
Date: Nov 24, 2005
Reviewer: A JeepReviews.com User from (Sacramento, CA)

I installed the JKS BL on my 06 Rubicon. The BL is easy to install and would recommend it to others. The pucks did bulge a little when I tightened the bolts down. I did try to get the grill snubbers in by twisting them in but had no luck. HINT: To install the front grill snubbers, remove the head light bezels, poked a hole on the snubber cone end and threaded them with weed edger line. Then thread the edger line through the bottom hole on the grill and up through the head light bezel area. Add a little grease around the end of the snubber and pull up on the edger line. The snubber will pop right in. Re-install headlight bezels. I added a motor mount lift and a high clearance t-case skid so I did not have to install the t-case shift linkage lowering bracket or drill holes in the fan shroud.
 
 
JKS BL and BMML
Date: Nov 09, 2005
Reviewer: A JeepReviews.com User from (Huntsville, AL)

The Body lift was an easy install. TO get the grill snubbers in easily, remove your light housings and pull from inside with pliers. Much easier! Kit is very solid and no squeaks, thumps or rattles.

I installed the BMML (spacers) for my OEM mounts (I have the 2.5L). Instructions call the passenger side easier, but on the 2.5, the pass side is harder. Just be sure to have the right length socket extensions and you'll be fine! Jeep actually rides smoother than before in regards to engine and driveline issues. I run quite a bit of JKS stuff on my rig (see my review for DPGOffroad) and have been very happy with service and product quality. JKS may be a bit more, but worth it IMO.
 
 
jks 1.25 body lift
Date: Jan 20, 2005
Reviewer: A JeepReviews.com User from (central jersey)

I installed this on my Rubicon in 6hours and the install was extremly easily until I had to jam the new front snubbers under the grill. After that, I had to drill 3 new holes for the radiator shroud b/c i did not install the motor mount lift. With this, you will be able to squeeze in 32s.
