I just looked at the link you provided but I don't see where it say's that it's a factory lift. The seller says that he thinks it's a rough country.

No such thing as a "factory lift" on a KJ. From the look of the front spacers, it seems like it is a rough country lift.

if he bought it new with the lift already on it then im sure it was a dealer installed lift on a brand new jeep to get the vehicle to sell.

lets see junk lift and later he says it was ordered so its not factory which we all know there is no factory lift
tires are not very good option, posers
wheels are Ok so they may be worth something
lots of uninformed people out there who will think they are getting a great deal.

poor souls :roll:

Maybe someone mixed up OME (Old Man Emu) with OEM (Originally Equipped Manufacturer).
