Ive been in the wheeling side for quite some time. Tho its been in my Taco.

Recently inherited an 07 Liberty. The wheeling disease (as my wife puts it) is deadly. I cant stop searching for things to rip off and replace on the Liberty. Hopefully get it to status quoe. Maybe not to the point of my Taco, but enough to get some good wheeling (and possibly keep it a DD, possibly) in while I slice and dice the Taco.

No Pics of the Liberty yet. But its white, black trim/bumpers. The basic. But Ive already got a lift, tires, sliders and roof rack all picked out.

Nice Toyo never been a fan of them but nice all the same. And welcome to LOST there is a wealth of knowledge here on the liberty and some very helpful people (tom :twisted: ) . And i know this disease you speak of jeep = bad for wallet = fun for the weekend. But do you have any pics of the GTI always loved those little hot hatches. And try hitting img and right clicking on the pic you want and going to properties and copying the URL in between the 2 img blocks.

I was looking at the spacer kits, but id much rather go coilover. So it looked like Skyjacker was the prominent one there.

For the sliders I saw some on Rock-Road. Supersliders I think they were called.

For tires i was just going to go with some BFG T/A Ko's.

And the roof rack was also on Rocky-Road. Their Safari rack.


Yeah, when new to a site I usually just post links of pics. Ive been yelled at before about just posting pics right away. Never know.

Nice GTI and no worries on the pics just figured i would let you know took me a few times to get it right. And if you want to retain any ride quality no to the spacer lift try http://www.jeepinbyal.com big help when it comes to outfitting the liberty. Rocky Road Outfitters has a really bad name when it come to customer service and product quality. But RRO is the only producer of the Rock Rails for the KK but i would suggest getting some reinforcements welded to them so they will actually hold up.

I'll let you read for a while but Skyjacker is down on the list right above RRO
Skyjackers spring rates are same as stock and do not hold up well at all. Best bang for the buck is OME or BDS, as far as front and rear shocks again OME or now Bilstein

For the sliders I saw some on Rock-Road. Supersliders I think they were called.

For great rock rails Check AllJs or Rock Lizard, ( he's been away from the game but will be back) Rocky Roads will not hold up

For tires i was just going to go with some BFG T/A Ko's.

And the roof rack was also on Rocky-Road. Their Safari rack.

Here you have a couple of good choices Rock Lizard and Boiler If you look at Rock Lizards web page you may even spot mine :wink:

Thanks for the info. The more I read here the more I see RRO isnt so great. Im also leary of places that claim to have "The best ever!" equipment.

The OME look perfect. Im even diggin the bumpers they have.
