Just do a search and you can see alot of them. Personally I would not buy anything from Rustys again. I had a ton of problems with a kit i bought for an XJ, like welds cracking over and over again and parts not fitting corectly. They were good about replacing the broken parts..... but they would just fail again. I have replaced the whole kit with a TNT customs LA kit and no problems... (knock on wood) So, this is my .02 I just wish I didn't waste all the money on the first kit only to be replaced 11 months later.

If I was going to modify my rig as extensively as you are, especially with a heavy ARB/winch bumper. I wouldn't mess around with a cheap lift. I'd go Frankenlift with OME shock/strut upgrade. I'd also get a set of Al's upper A arms with greasable ball joints to pull the geometry back closer to stock with the lift.

Rusty's spacer lift is the same as the RRO OTT lift. I wouldn't recommend it.

Rusty's Spring lift is a good kit. I've installed 4 of them and everyone is happy with their lift. Rusty's spring kit is good.

Reality sucks huh

Keep dreaming though, sometimes they come true.

Rev-tek's spacer lift gets good reviews. You can get away with a cheap lift, just dont use an OTT style unless you want to make some custom bumpstops.

Over The Top
of the strut that is

They are the ones that are just a spacer that goes on top of the strut and will cause your struts to bottom out and therefore self destruct if you dont rig up an extended bumpstop.

Here is a good page. http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Jeep_Liberty/Suspension

Also there is a sticky at the top of this forum that lists a bunch of lifts

And here is Rev-teks lift.

NjjeepKJ Do not give up on your dreams , most of us are in the same boat with bills etc. Dont think anyone on here has won the lottery lately. What I have done to mine was done in steps, even the lift took two months to get it all together. My ARB was used. Rock ring was used, gas tank skid off ebay etc. So do the lift the right way first time and then you wont have any problems. I bought my OME springs and front struts from All Js, Rear shocks from Summit racing etc. Look around this and other forums (although L.O.S.T. is the best) and go from there, just stay away from any that goes on top of the strut to provde the total lift

Yes, half the fun is planning and scrounging. I've had my KJ almost 4 years and it's still far from "finished". One thing I've decided is to get the right stuff the first time, even if it's more pricey or harder to get. Just piece it together as you can, and have fun doing it.
