looks great... i would widen the stance some more and get longer rear shocks for the rear so you can flex better...just set ur bump stops so your flairs will stay on... looks great...got a list on what all you did, suspension wise

Looks like you need longer control arms for the rear. I'm guessing you will slam into the flare after an inch of up travel.

longer shocks are useless because of the short arms if I flex too much the drive shaft hit the gas tank :? long arms would be better but complicated to do. mabe in a few years but not now. I will add longer bumpstops to protect the rear flares and a wider stance is a big no no up here. I dont want to have a cop magnet

check this for info on my lift http://www.lostjeeps.com/forum/phpBB3/vie ... hp?t=42773

here you can see the stance is already wider than the flares
Image


rear tire flexing: very close but its not touching the flares

I just washed the jeep today and added my rock sliders :D

Well, I prefer KJ's, but you've done I mighty nice job on your KK. I'd consider one if they dropped a Diesel in it. :D :D

Agreed. I would consider one if there was a CRD option. Looks neat. Did they stop making the front diff out of aluminum in the KK?

Looks great! You say you have a 3" lift but it looks higher, how much did you actually gain?

its 3'' lift rear and 3.5'' front. I could say its a 4'' lift because I have the 4'' rear jba springs but they gave me a little more than 2.5 so I had to add 1/2'' spacers. The front is ajustable and is set to match the rear
