I have been asking around for input on a lot of random things, and here is another, I’ve been reading about lifts and have come to the conclusion the Liberty needs one. So after a bit o’ research I realized I have no idea what I’m doing. So L.O.S.T. Jeeps help! What kit would you recommend? Lot of people talk about the Frankinlift is this the lift that is all the rage?

Found some other info on this lift

The Frankenlift is a 2.5" lift kit built by All J products. Widely considered the best lift kit for the Liberty, it's a combination of many different lift kit brands. The front rubber spring spacers contribute 1" and the front Old Man Emu springs contribute 1.5" for a total of 2.5" in the front. The rear Old Man Emu springs contribute 1.5". The Liberty is 1" lower in the front from the factory and leveled out by the 1" difference between the front and rear of the Frankenlift. The front coils and struts come pre-assembled and can be purchased separately from the rear coils and shocks.




If not can somebody point me in the right direction?

You can go that way if you choose to,
simple to install don't have to run the springs somewhere to get them compressed etc
But you can also look at jeepinbyal
sells OME full spring kits for 750 or so, Ironman which I recently tested out for 650 and change
So a few different ways to go
If your not in too big of a hurry I'll be in the "neighborhood" in a couple of weeks and you can check mine out to see how you like the ride, height etc
And thats another thing how much lift do you want?
You can have basically anything from about 2 inches all the way to 6 if you have the coin.
Most end up in the 3-3.5 range over new stock

The lib, is gonna be a DD so any lift above 4 would be ridiculous I was thinking form plus function would lead me to a 3/3.5 in in the end. Gonna check out jeepinbyal and look around there.

3-3.5 is a good height, looks good and with 245-75-16 tires it looks great
Anything over that and you'll get into regearing etc
But once you start it snowballs. I bought mine and said there was no way I was doing anything to it. That was in Sept 04, two months later it started
8 years later and almost 180,000 miles look where the journey has went

Oh and check out his UCAs also , if you're going that height may as well go all the way, makes it easier to get the alignment as close as possible

Sent you a PM as well
