Does anyone have a Rocky Road "Rockfather" lift kit on their KK?

The KK Rockfather kit seems like it would have everything someone would need, without having to shop around for all these different parts. Any thoughts? The link to their webpage is below.

I would think that with a 2.5"-3" lift, one could fit steel rims with, say, 31" tires (if you have wheel spacers) without an issue.

Other better kits out there on the market with better customer service
also getting into the 31 inch tall tire range you're going to need to look at regearing possibly
31s need at least 3 inches plus for room for tires

King Springs not available in the US, maybe someone from Australia will chime in

RRO has good customer service. At least I have had good service but I wouldn't buy their lift.

Could you fit the 31" tires with a 4" lift then?
And won't the front CV joints bind up on a newer (2008+) liberty with over a 3" lift?

Yes 31s will fit with 4" of lift. No CVs won't bind up. The limit most are comfortable with is 4.5" of lift. Any higher puts too much stress on them and isn't really recommended.

Limit is 4 inches WITH adjustable coilovers , 4.5 inches is too much for CVs etc plus with a regular full spring lift you'll have UCA/ spring contact at 3.75-4 inches
