That lift had so much potential. If they would of made new knuckles among a few other small things it would of been a big hit..

It would of been REALLY good if it had a steel front diff.. :twisted:

On paper it looked good but was not well thought out at all. There was too many "little things" that were potential problems. One of those items that comes out too quickly without anyone really testing it. If they would have, they would of known it was junk to begin with. Just looking for a quick dollar

I think that lift was designed more to get attention than to be functional.A "RockCrawler"it's not,but for anyone to say it does'nt look good..........well you might just need a shrink. :wink: :lol: :lol: :lol:

ALL SHOW AND NO GO!

The company also screwed customers with no support for such a major purchase/product.

good looking lift on kinda an ugly kj if you ask me, that kj just looks to much like a mall crawler anyways..

im sorry but to me there is just nothing mean looking about most, and i emphasize most, limited kjs... i think its just the fender and body match that they have, oh ya and probably the chrome "bling" everywhere..

Well the guy who built that one used to post on here. He said that it was mostly for the show circuit anyway as he was being sponsored by Sirius Radio (note the big sticker on the side).

I talked to the Burnsville Offroad guys about it & they said they saw no problems with the kit. They also did a couple other KJs & had no complaints. The guy that had that Sirius KJ has sold it & BOR has not had any complaints from the current owner. They seem to think that the problems largely came from poor installation jobs. I guess it was quite complicated.

Still junk, they maybe have another kit laying in the back they want to unload! Back when the one guy was trying to get his to work he tried everything, of course the company was NO HELP at all. I would not even take one of the kits if someone dropped it off in the driveway for me!

you would be correct on that, or at least I would never trust anything of theirs
