I was looking for stuff on jeep4x4center.com and saw the lifts and was thanking this may be a cheaper option than getting a frankenlift the lifts say 02-05 I was thinking the 05s and 06s kjs were the same will this lift go on my 06 sport

I was looking for a lift to replace my daystar lift if the skyjacker lift will work with my jeep is the skyjacker lift a good lift for the kj or should I spent the extra $300 and get the Premium II frankenkit

The newer SkyJacker lifts come with "softride coils",same spring rate as OEM.You need the older SkyJacker coils(like I have) for the HD coils,those coils will sag like the Rusty's coil lift.Just get the FrankinLift.


Oh and for '06's you will need 2 brake line extension due to the ABS/ESP junk,don't let anyone tell you different you will need 2,and I repeat 2 rear brake line extensions for a '06-'07 KJ.Both are easy to make.

you need 2 brake line extensions? I thought it was just the one on the rear...or do '06's have two brake hoses????

The rear on '06 and '07's have 2 brake lines due to ESP.

ESP equals the DEVIL

On the 2006 it's just one. I bought the supplies to relocate both sides and I still have the parts for the passenger side. Unless I totally missed something, if so please post a pic of the passenger side so I don't destroy my brake line.

I used 1 10MM (99% sure) bolt and 3 nuts.

Ditto, 06's at least only have one brake line in the rear. Driver side to a splitter, and along the length of the axle to the passenger side.

Actually get a few opinions...that is what the forum is for...and then look underneath for yourself. Just because it has ABS/ESP does not mean that the system requires completely separate hydraulic lines. The ABS/ESP is activated thru sensors...not physical connections to the master cylinder.

All the '06 KJ's I've installed lifts on have had 2 brake lines in the rear that need to be extended,both are on the drivers side.

See pic below,#1 is the obvious one and then #2 that all KJ's have regardless of year that also needs to be extended.

TJKJ, I just walked out to look at the KJ (In a foot of snow with just slippers on. You owe me warm toesies). I just have number 1 on my 06. No number 2. Maybe a mid-year model change...

Might be but the 3 '06 KJ's I've put lifts on have had 2 rear brake lines.#2 is tucked up under and on the inside of the unibody "rail" and kinda hard to see,should look like the pic below.
