Go vote for this lift

wendell · **Posted:** Tue Jan 09, 2007 11:14 am

I have a couple of questions, how big would this lift be ? I don't want anything bigger than a 2.5", maybe 3" at the most, the kj is also a daily driver. A 30" or 31" tire is the biggest that I would want to run on the highway in a short wheel based 4x4. However, I would like a good sturdy lift kit, with decent articulation and minamal to no problems. If this would be an extreme kit, it wouldn't help me much, but I would vote to help out my buddies. I've never herd of this company, I have RCD, they make an awesome ranger kit, a long with Dixon Brothers. Could someone fill me in a little, "thanks"?

Not sure what they are going to offer, but my guess would be something along the lines of a 4-5" lift, since there are already good 2.5-3" lifts (Frankenlift, Rusty's, Daystar) that allow 30-31" tires. Seems to me they would be looking to capture the people that want to go higher.

IIRC, some of their employees, or at least the head honcho, was a Jeep engineer. They do some awesome work on suspension systems and some of it is fairly unusual but works great. They are well known for their TJ tummy tucker and angled long arm lift which was also the basis for Allyrands SFA setup. I imagine if they tackled the KJ lift they would come up w/ something pretty sweet but it wouldn't be cheap either. I would however be Very interested and ready to buy for my wifes KJ as it is staying IFS.

FWIW, Since so many voted extra times for the KJ I voted for the JK. You know darn well they are going to do a JK suspension regardless of what we all vote and even if they do a KJ system too.

TRAITOR

JK

Even if they do come out with a more extreme lift, perhaps some of the components could be used on a "normal" sized lift. I will keep my fingers crossed, and hope they remember the CRD as well.

I think a few people used multiple votes - but those are typically excluded from the final numbers when the polls are closed or all of the extra ones are just "thrown out..."

I only voted once - it's not fair to us or any of the other vehicle platforms to submit more than 1 vote

they did not say on how high but I will tell you not to worry about it even if it goes 3.5"+
that is what I have on my TJ with there stuff to "help out" and I have no problems going 70+ mph other than gearing ,I am geared to low

I would be happy with some new uppers ,not that what is out now is not good but I like choices, also some new lowers and maby a new rear end assembly that does away with the funky upper A arm and goes with a set up like there long arm kit with the stinger and track bar ,I will be going stinger on my TJ some time this year

there is a lot of room for improvement not just a lift
even if they use OME springs but make a bunch of "a la carte" kits like they do for the TJ that would be great and I know folks would buy I would for sure

Go vote for this lift
