Post subject:  my kk in progress
not much yet on the car, just few cosmetics, window tint and turn and side markers black out.

i have the car for about two weeks now and i am very happy, it is replacing my trusty 98 grand Cherokee that finally died....
love this liberty and all i can say now is WHY I DIDN'T BUY IT BEFORE........

plans are 2,5" lift,
245/75/16 duratracks... maybe will give a try 265/70/16 and see if there is any rub....
need to start extending my breathers... (florida's offroad trails are really wet)
snorkel a must
front and rear hitch mounts that allow me to use my winch in both positions, i offroad a lot by my self wile hunting the local wmas and found that having a winch in the back is very useful to get out off places that you shouldn't even try to pass.

Looks good so far! Plans look good too. To my knowledge, no one makes a snorkel for it yet. Depends how deep you're planning on going, but I've been into some water (on entry) that blacked out my headlights for a second, and no issues with my stock filter. Extending the breathers is a great idea, as you're really not going to get those lifted lol. Tires will get it up a little, but on the whole, it's really nothing. Figure every inch of bigger diameter tires gives you about 1/2" of lift.

Great looking kk. What kind of lift did you have in mind?

Looks good. Be careful with your fuse/electronics box in the front. I'm had been trying to think of a way to make that water resistant.

I would just use some silicon then when you wanna get in there just cut it with a knife and peel it off. I'd say that's a good temporary idea until you get tired of doing the same thing over and over again cutting and re applying
