I just purchased the Rock Krawler lift kit, is it easy to install? For those of you who installed it are you happy with it? As far as tires go I like the Cooper Discover AT3, 245/75r/16. I'm new to this any advice will be much appreciated. I have a 2011 Jeep Liberty sport |

probably the easiest budget boost to install. many people gripe about the company sending the lifts out with "weak" hardware . do yourself a favor and go to a hardware store and replace the provided hardware with grade 8. i had an issue with springs contacting the upper control arms over speed bumps with mine but it doesnt happen to everyone supposedly. do not be surprised when this kit does not yield 3.5" of lift. |

Should be easy peasy since you dont need to remove the spring assembly. For the front you only need to disconnect the upper ball joint, sway bar, then replace the clevis with your new one. Rear just remove the shocks, disconnect the sway bar end links, jack it up high enough to remove the springs and install the spacers. Install the longer shocks that you hopefully purchased, alignment and your done. |

bad lift kit, IMO from what i have heard. And after doing the spacer lift on mine I have learned my lesson. |

Enjoy you lift. When I was looking for my lift I researched the rk lift and waited for a better lift. I then became the 1of the 3 who "r&d" Jeep in by Al's lift, link below. Worked out the bugs and now he has the best lift for the kk. He has two lift heights. I sit about 4.25" higher. He also sells the shocks you are looking for. |
