not much exist for the KK yet. JeepinByAl.com has a 2.5" lift that replaces the springs and shocks and JBA also has another lift that replaces the front suspension with a coilover assembly, which i might add is very pricey. you could buy lift components for the front of a KJ and they will work on the KK but not the rear. the only thing available for the rear is JBA springs or spacer lifts.

They work but as I recall a kj frankenlift front lift was installed on the front of a kk and measured about 3/4" shorter then the amount of lift it gave to a kj.
