    I'm glad this thread has come back to life. Sal has helped a bit but I have a few questions specific to my setup.

    I had originally planned on buying a BL, and cut'n those things up and stuffing them underneath the OME for a modified OME setup... but now I have more options.

    I can't remember which one of you has the OME HD or MD set up. Using these Monroe Load Levelers can solve two issues That I'd really like. 1. I want more lift in the rear... NOT A LOT... just enough so that it yields almost as much as the front. I think my current measurements are, (fender to hub cap) 22.5" in front, 21.5 in rear. 2. I think the 21.5 in the rear is due to a loaded cargo, and accumulation of skids and tools i'm slowly acquiring. Will the EXTENDED Monroes Load Levelers achieve this...

    And can we differentiate between the Monroe Load Levelers and the Extended Monroe Load levelrs but saying MLL and MLL+ because it is an awful lot to type, lmao.

    I think I'm getting these too. The RR shocks have been on for about 3000 miles and something is wrong with them. The bushing failed already and they have a "clunk" like they're not long enough/don't have enough travel. I found the Monroes on Amazon and scrolled down to the comments and low and behold the only comment was from this Sal-XK dude.

    And you'll probably also find that there's a "negative" rating on that Sal-XK's dues response... from some Matt dude

    When you say perfect, i'm assuming you mean it achieves at least .5" over OME shocks while simultaneously addressing sag?

    I never had the OME shocks. I had the MLL + OME HD springs/struts. The MLL+ gave me .75" over the MLL with that same spring setup, which was perfect in conjunction with the JBA strut spacer since my rear is now 1/2" higher than the front.

    Ah, OK. I also took a look at your link. See when you look at the accent lines along my Jeep it appears level, but when you look at the Front wheel well vs the rear. It's clear the Front is jacked up more than the rear. I want just as much space between the tire and the wheel well for both the front and rear. If i yielded .5" higher in rear than front as you did, I'd actually be very satisfied with that.
