front tires look like they are falling in.

that would be a super sweet kj if it had
sfa and at LEAST 35's.

yea the alignment is pretty far off, i wonder if they just didnt have it done, or it wont align now due to excessive lift. i had that problem with my k1500

That is caused by severe droop on the upper a arm, problem is they are using the 6 inch knuckle extender on a 12" lift. That alignment will never be right. You need a custom knuckle...front diff....gears....tires. Then I might rock it.

I have learned with my XJ, higher isn't always better !!!!!!! :wink: :wink:

I just cant believe that they're suggesting that you can run 33s or 35s with the d30a. :shock: Dont 31s and 32s blow up enough of those things!?

I'm really not a fan. It looks way to big for a KJ.
Now if it had a SFA, then it would look a little better, but I just don't like the huge lift look on your mid-sized Jeeps.

I think it would do fine as a mall crawler on 35s. It would be a dog on 4.10s though....maybe 33s would be better.

Take a look at the ground clearance. All that $$$ and height but what could it do that a Franky couldn't do? Except for the tires that is.

deep snow and mud would be a lot easier with all that ground clearance.. especially with larger tires. however rocks would be hairy with all that height... which is a same. with a 4link and long arms i bet the back flex's like gumby!

You haven't increased ground clearance very much- the front and rear diff's are maybe 1" higher than the Frankenlift's running 265/75/16's
