Thanks!

Have you thought about removing the air dam? It's super easy.

Was recently at the dealership where I bought my new Liberty and someone had ordered a new Artic KK, aside from the emblem on the fender the rims are real cool and the headlights and hood are already black. It was a Silver (like mine) KK so it looked sharp with the hood, lights and rims. I work with a guy who is restoring an old camaro with his son and told me about a local powder coater, I want to see if he can do my rims to look like the artic rims, nice ride musclezmarinara.

Went to that Powder Coater today, to bead balst and powder coat, $65.00 a wheel. So $260.00 plus tax, plus dismount tire, take off tpms valve stem, remount/rebalance/remount tpms vlave stem things, probly almost four hundi. Gotta start saving my :2cents:

:? just noticed you listed rear coils for a KJ, hope that your kit has the correct ones (2731) for the KK. I should of ordered mine from JBA or RRO then I would already have mine too, still waiting on parts to arrive at local 4WP store.
(edit) my sport struts and rear coils are on back order, JBA and RRO have coils stocked most likely...
