SUBURBAN's KJ Purchased in early 2003 the KJ Cherokee (Liberty) is the family tourer and daily transport the 60km each way we have to travel. The KJ is often pressed into towing duties for the competition rigs and for delivery / transport duties with relation to our SUPERIORTRAILERS.COM.AU side of the business. SUB KJ regularly tows up to 2700kg and the duty in the vehicle is a pleasure.

POWER PRO-PERFORMANCE The vehicle is now also fitted with a Power-Pro performance module. This performance module greatly enhances and little KJ's 2.5L Diesel. That combined with the recently fitted 2.5" Exhaust system gives the KJ a performance increase of over 20% that of stock. The unit is tuneable and post tuning worked exceptionally well even under high load, low RPM conditions
The KJ Cherokee is the daily driver of our Principal Mark. H. The KJ was used to develop SUBURBAN's 3.5" to 4" lift and ran under the truck for some 6months prior to release. The 3.5" system if one of the single biggest improvements you can make to the KJ Cherokee. The KJ is often used on family weekends with the SYDNEY JEEP CLUB it is also at many interstate Jeep events.

I'm thinking about contacting them (suburban4wd.com) and seeing if they can ship one over to the good ol' US of A. It is very expensive though.

the tyres were 265/75R16 and suburban went out of business september 06,

from some of those who used it , pulled it out some of the fab work was dodgy (sorry aussie to US translation = poor) the frankenlift is a better bet
