I like the look of the SFA lots more, that seems more functional. It looks unproportioned from the height of the vehicle to the size of the tires. Just my opinion though.

you know, I really don't see the point of these jumbo lifts. The rear pumpkin and front assembly is still only about a foot off the ground. It's not like you ae buying that much more clearance. Maybe it's just me but I don't get it. :? 8) :?


Granted but then the break-over angle is increased and so are your approach and departure angles.

Here in CO 1" diff clearance is a very well worth any money spent to get it.I'm looking at 1.5" more diff clearance on my SFA,that would equal to 3" over stock.

That lift is just plain ridiculous. Looks like an RC jeep liberty. For the price you could do a SFA.

What size of tires are those? It would probably look better with 36" tires or so but you would have to do some modification to the front d30a. Custom gears or ?

Nope! Wont Work. that will be the most undependable vihecle on or off road. Sorry dont mean to knock down anyones engineering knowledge, but if you cant go SFA then leave things the way they are, its safer that way :)

Well I am getting deployed again. Seems like everytime I start a project something comes up. Just for sh*ts and giggles. What kind of products do you think they are going to come up with in the next year for are Libby's. Lord knows i'll have a lil change in my pockets. All I have right now is a lift and a fresh set of 31's.


I happened to be with my family member, LIV42DY and he had this topic opened, being a law enforcement officer and working with a unit targeted towards violence towards children I found your avatar very disturbing.
