Apologies if this has been posted before, but I've just noticed the the Rock Krawler site has had this information added;

KJ X Factor Comp 7 Coil Over SFA Suspension System

Available Spring/Summer 2006

Finally, a real suspension system for the Jeep Liberty. We call it the KJ 7-UP [sic]. This system addresses all the problems with the KJ platform by converting the front end over to a solid axle. The front axle will be based off of a Wrangler TJ front axle (Dana 30 or 44) and will use a Wrangler TJ factory steering box so parts swapping is made simple. The front suspension will be a long arm indpendent 3 link front end with coil over racing shocks. The back end is going to be a long arm triangulated 4 link with conventional springs and long travel shocks.

I know there have been mixed reorts about RK's previous KJ attempt (actually, that's not true; all the reports have been bad!) but as I understand it the rear-end was fine. So hopefully they'll sort out the front end this time.

I'm liking the use of TJ parts, keeping it Jeep and all that.

Plus, more competition in the KJ SFA market has got to be a good thing. The next 12 months could be very interesting indeed!

I'll remain skeptically optimistic until I see it out and see that it works well.

I think I will look twards ARBSeth or Wally before I get something from RK. I know I would have to call them with a question when Im installing the kit and with the rep that their customer service has, I am very skepticle to buy from them.

I would get it from someone else RK doesnt take care about their customers even though they made a bad suspension i am still trying to repair the mess of their front suspension the whole front is in the garbage and they never returned to me a single dime. They havent even contacted me to offer their new SFA kit. I wouldnt risk it
