Hi, I have a 2013 grand Cherokee that I installed a OME 2.5” lift on a few years ago. Last year the strut snapped on the passenger side. Today driving home the driver side snapped on a speed bump.

First time I have messed with IFS. Are these OME struts junk? Was the top nut overtightened when the struts was assembled?

Was thinking of going to a dobinson strut. Would I be able to use the OME lift spring? Thinking yes.

The newer OME shock was installed to spec and is still fine.

Frustrated. Thanks for any thoughts.

Hi everyone! Here is a look at my current setup.

I’ve been in beekeeping for over 30 years and still love it as much as day one. I run a nomadic operation, towing my mobile bee wagons with my Land Cruiser 105 across different locations in Kakheti, Georgia—chasing good blooms and strong harvests wherever they are.

I love staying up to date, innovating, and educating others about our work. But after three decades, I can say it's getting tougher than ever, largely due to climate change. Looking forward to connecting with you all!
