I have been shopping around for a suspension lift for my wife's 2010 KK. I see that most guys on the forum have a JBA lift. Unfortunately I cannot afford the Adjust A Strut set up. I have been looking at Skyjacker's Platinum Series lift. The kit comes with front and rear springs, struts, rear shocks and front and rear bump stops all for under 900 bucks. I have searched this forum and others, but have not found much info about it. Does anyone have any info regarding this kit? The kit isn't even posted on skyjackers website I saw it in their 2012 catalog. |

Just an FYI, you can get an OME lift with OME HD springs and Bilstein shocks for $750. Look on the Jeepin By Al website. The skyjacker kit sounds intriguing though Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk 2 |

I have also been looking at this lift. I personally don't want a spacer lift and want all spring which is part of the reason I am looking at skyjacker it comes with coil overs for front and coils for rear just be careful where you get it some places are selling them with out the rear shocks so if you find it for 738 its not a deal same thing minus the rear shocks. Edit: skyjacker also comes with bump stops |

I heard the skyjacker parts aren't rated much more than the stock suspension components so it might not be worth th hassle as it will likely sag FAST. At least that's how the kj kit is, maybe thekk is another story. |

Doubt it companies like them don't usually change much between models (such as materials and processes) I would assume they are the same. |

Those softride coils are, well, soft. I think i remember they are the same spring rate as stock. I had a problem with my skyjacker rear shocks and called their customer service, with no real f given from them and directed my to return them to the retailer. I had a problem with my old man emu springs and had new ones shipped to me without even asking for a replacement. Arb is a great company in my book and they actually stand behind their product. |
