Ball joint flips and spacers are not recommended on 2nd gens because you risk over extending the R&P and blowing out the seals, destroying it.


That pretty much explains everything. What do you want to know?

Btw, if you have a question regarding a topic discussed in another post, go ahead and reply to it. That way the info is all in the same place for future searchers.


Thanks for the quick reply. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Anyway, I ask this question because I don't remember seeing that in any of the other threads I searched. Since seeing that in one thread only is hardly conclusive proof, I was hoping to get independent confirmation. This goes most of the way toward that for me. The best of all possible worlds for me would be to hear multiple other '98+ Rodeo owners say that they had lifted their vehicles and not bothered with a BJ flip and everything was cool.

As for replying to an old thread, in my experience, that varies from message board to message board. On another board where I moderate, there is no hard and fast rule, but generally the time to bump an old post is if you have definite, conclusive info that would help people make a decision, do further research, etc. Since this post is asking for further clarification, I just started a new thread, though I do absolutely understand why you'd just rather see an old thread bumped.

Anyway, thanks again. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> And I'd still like to hear from other '98+ lifted Rodeo owners... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
