Not sure about JBA, seems all his lift kits say "Out of stock" :shock:
Google "OME 1.5" lift for jeep liberty 2002", plenty of the kits available and listed by several other online vendors. :google:

Thank You, I read somewhere that OME wasn't producing Liberty parts anymore!

OME's still producing the same variety, and JBA is still producing the UCA's, so the "standard" OME route lift is still 100% available. For most either the (2927) 927's or (2790) 790 front springs and (2948) 948 rear springs with a variety of conduit nut clevis lift or 1/4-3/8th top plate for the front, and extra upper rear spring isolators on the rear for leveling is the general plan. having shelf space taken up, and a large investment in parts and material for kits that are infrequently sold are pretty heavy burdeons on vendors, especially small ones. The only OME offering that limbo'ed for awhile was the 132-L rear shock, which i think they even restarted making those after a few year hiatus.

JBA is still around. As I understand it he builds per order. It makes sense not to carry a lot of expensive stuff in stock.

As per my discussion with JBA on the phone, they are only making upper control arms and will not be making lifts for the kJ... I tried to add a little extra to the price and entice him to build me a 4in gold kit but they are streamlining their operation.

Sad. I should have picked up one while they were available.

CB engineering makes a kit for the front and extended control arms for the rear and I have a local company I will use for the rear springs, I already cut down some axles so now I gotta find the extended brake lines

With a 4in kit, wouldnt you want a steel front dif? I talked with him about that, and he sounded like he might produce a run if we had enough buyers up front. Would probably take 10. I would have bought one sooner if I only knew...

I would take a 4" JBA lift kit if I could get one now.

I would commit if he is going to make a batch. Let me know if he does it
