Just fitted this to my KJ. It's looking great and I'm now looking forward to the lift. Image

Looks awesome! I want to do the Bull Bar & the lift. The lift won't happen for a few more years, still under warranty for the time being, haha.

Side note...do you know of any Bull Bars that look similar to this one that are made for a KK?

Check Atthehelm on here he has KK front and rear bumpers
You can lift your KK before the warranty goes off, many do
I did mine before it was a year old

Sit back and read the various posts this weekend, all questions will be answered :wink:

I was told by the Jeep place I bought mine from that significantly changing anything with the suspension and/or body, could possibly void my warranty, that's why I'm hesitant about lifting it.

Lifting will void all suspension warranty. Lower a-arms and rear control arms are fine(the lift doesn't effect them). However if you blow a ball joint on the uppers they could say the angles did it. They have to prove the lift or any aftermarket component caused the failure. So if you blow the engine and your only mod was a lift, they can't void the warranty on the engine.

That said, I was lifted 27 or 28k miles in. The Jeep was only a year and a half old.

Yep, I would love to lift it, but I'm too much of a chicken **** to mess with my warranty with so much time left on it.

one of the dealerships here sells new lifted Jeeps (that included KJ's at the time)

no questions at all about a OME lift

they even changed out upper control arms under warranty and lower ball joints on recall.

ask around.


(ARB looks good - it'll be more balanced with the lift and tires)

I lifted my KJ 20000 miles into my 100000 mile 7 year warranty and had problems with a leaky front differential pinion seal that they still warrantied even with the lift on the vehicle. I've also had several other issues with the suspension covered under the warranty as well. I guess it depends on your dealer but don't let it stop you from lifting and making the ride much better and the vehicle more capable. Still going strong at 150000 + miles, and still love the ride and confidence in the KJ. :JEEPIN:

Here I am trying to be rational, & you guys are making it awfully tough, haha. My girlfriend will probably be posting yelling at y'all after I come home with it lifted one night. :grim:

It is impossible to be both rational and a Jeep owner at the same time

This I know...mostly playing, slightly serious (about my g/f killing me...hah.) If my power ball tickets help me out, I'd be much happier.
