Guess what suspension mods I have (PICS!!!)

As you have heard my stupid question before I need to know if I can raise the cls in the front so I can fit 225/40/18 tires. I have heard about the Konig "perch" and I am wondering if I have it. Please look at the pics below and tell me what I have. The second pic I am wondering if that is stock or do I have a camber kit. Thanks for all the hep

Can I raise the front.


Camber Kit or Not Rear


Is this on the second "perch" because the car sits lower in the front (Rear)

Koni Yellow's ?

If yes, It is hard to tell. I have my Koni's still sitting at my house, I can look at them when I get home and try to compare the pics to mine.

I know that they are koni yellows just dont know why the front is so low that i can't get 225/40/18 tires to fit. You have seen my car why is it so much lower then others in the front. I am taking it that they are eibach springs because there red. Suspension is not my thing. Now nitrous, intake, headers, exhasut I am used to just not this stuff. Thanks for all the help!!!

looks to me like you're on the lower perch in the front. you should be able to use the upper perch and gain a 1/2".

Hmm perhaps also that they are the Eibach Sportline Springs, as opposed to the pro kit. (sportline's are like 2 inch drop I believe).

Good going guys.
Also Brent, it may be beneficial to just switch them out with the Eibach Pro kit, or the CT springs. Of course, this can be tedious, and I am not a DIY when it comes to suspension.
With the Eibach Pro Kit or the Comptech's, or the H&R OE you can go 225's

Thanks everyone! I am replacing with adjustable but for the time being I spent another $550 on tires. Funny how the rear tires with the camber kit are the ones that went bald. Atleast now I can take the jeep to the shop to get fixed.
