Will post some photos once done. I’m probably going to weld some more support pieces on these to beef them up a bit.

Thats the one. Just need a set of feeler guages to confirm some specs. I want to say the gap on the unit shouldn't be more than 0.014" but its been a while since I installed mine.
Do you already have manual hubs?
I’m going to do manual hubs at the same time. Thanks!!

Just a double check guys. I'm planning to order this Lokka for my 2002 QX4. Any issues I need to be aware of?
Part number NIS-FO-293 on the Lokka site.

Yep! I put LR springs and Bilsteins on the rear, giving about 2.5" of lift. I have a 2" spacer on the front now, but next week KYB/OME springs with 1" spacer. I have skid plates on now and rock sliders are coming next week, along with manual hubs. Lots to do! I actually bought that QX4 brand new in 2002 and never drove it very much, so it has pretty low miles on it. The benefit of a California car, especially where I live and it's almost always 70F, is no rust, leaks etc. It's technically my 16 year old son's truck now, but I'm having fun working on it.

I have a 2002 QX4 with LSD axle. I may start with a Lokka in the front with manual hubs, then do the rear later. Any issues you see with the QX4 variant?

That wont work on any R50 unless you swap over to a 31 spline setup. All R50 H233B rear axles are setup with 33 spline.
The 31 spline swap has been done and @hawairish documented the steps and parts needed.
Thanks! Probably easier to just swap the axle.

Anyone put one in their Pathy? Looking at maybe doing this one in my 2002 QX4.

Sorry to say not enough interest. I guess we will have to go it alone.

No problem! Thanks for trying!

Is there a group buy going on? If not, I will order one off eBay.

The QX4 boxed in by Jeeps!

btw how long it took the items to get to your door? im interested now after seeing that in person.
It took about 2 weeks from the time I ordered to arrival at my door.
Great meeting you today! Thinking about the SFD and 6 inch lift......

Nice meeting Delta R50 today at Hollister SVRA!

You know, your transfer case looks awfully wet. Got a leak?
I'm jealous of how unbelievably rust-free your undercarriage is!
California car! Never seen bad weather, basically no rust anywhere.
I just changed the transfer case fluid.

Anybody got a set of 2 inch front strut spacers they’re not using anymore they’d be willing to part with?
I will likely have a front/rear set in the next couple weeks. Replacing front struts and doing 1" on front, LR springs on rear no spacers.
-
Yeah, I just keep a couple extra bolts/washers/hose clamps/zip ties for general purposes.
-
Awesome skid plates and customer service from Steve! Can't wait to skid on them!

Land Rover Springs and 5100's in the rear. El cheapo struts and 2" spacers in the front, about to be replaced with KYB/OME HD and 1" spacers.

a lot of people seem to get about 1”-1.25” out of OME HD springs if they have no extra weight
If I plan to put on a metal bumper/winch maybe I should go with the 1.5" spacer?
-
Just now, PathyDude17 said:
Yep. Don’t put on the trim packer. If you put the 1” spacer on top of OME springs like that you’re looking at about 2-2.5” of lift
Fantastic! That's what I'll do.

The OME HD springs plus a 1” SF creations spacer is a great, safe setup. Multiple guys run it, no report of CV issues
The 1" SF spacer would take the place of the Trim Packer? How much lift would I get with the 1" SF and KYB GR2/OME HD's?
Land Rover rear lift spring install

LR 9448 springs (one coil removed) with Bilstein 5100's in the rear, KYB struts and OME springs in the front. About 2.5" of lift.
