I do not understand why they felt the need to go with a 7" lift. 4.5in would of been alot better with less problems. New knuckles are almost a must though.. Why would you want to drill the stock knuckles? :roll:

From what I've heard, even the 3 and 3.5 lifts are crap, Rock Crawler is junk company, they have horrible customer service.

Someone should ask the seller how often he has taken it off road on some really good trails.

If you want show and no go, get it.

The rear part of the lift was actually pretty good,it was the way they did the front that was a disaster(AKA-drilling the knuckles,steering set-up).

Also, I don't understand the point of the "lift". If you look at the IFS, the craddle is at the same height as a stock KJ. That is rather useless for a lift kit.

Test it all you want, just don't buy the dang thing.
There was one fellow with a black Lib that after a very long time and re-engineering said he had all the problems fixed. Than he almost immediately sold it.

There was one of those 7UP lifted KJ's here in CO also(silver sport),some dumb private bought it,broke the steering twice(in 3 weeks,no offroading all on road) then trated it in and lost a butt load of money.Save yourself the heartache and pass on it unless you can get it for less than $5000.Also RK will not support that lift,that means there are zero replacement parts for anything you break,all needs to be custom made.

From the pictures, it looks to me like the Liiby is being used at about the right level of offroading for the 7UP lift! :-)
