My turn



JBA 4" Lift Kit with all the assorted goodies is came with.
Breather Extenders Bellows
Closed off Front Facing intake for Airbox to the rear and feed in from the cowl.

Next steps...

Need to new tires, damn things have no grip for getting over logs. Went to Jeep Beach 2013 and the only thing I couldn't do on the obstacle course was the spaced logs due to no gripping.

Fog Light kit install

LED Light bar

Also planning on front end recovery system, either detours winch backbone or going all out an getting atthehelms. Still debating this one.

Looks great! It's almost laughable how low that thing is. Looks like you take care of her.
She's really laughing at the ranch in working at. I'm afraid I'm about to destroy my suspension and fenders.

9 miles from the freeway to get there. Any other KK would eat this up! AtTheHelm hooked up some stock springs and they're getting installed on Saturday.

No more libbinlow for now, I need some more practicality out of her.

Maybe I can squeeze something bigger than my 275/45/20 on her too. New shoes always make her smile a bit bigger

Must be working there for a long time if you're willing to add the stock springs again. It's nice to see someone go a totally different route with the KK. Do you even remember what stock height is? :D

I'm also jealous you don't need a front license plate where you live. I love the KK front bumper and hate covering it up. The New Jersey license plate is boring yellow.

Thanks! Funny thing I've always thought about adding one. It's like when you don't have something you want it, and when you have it you don't want it. Unless its udiles and udiles of money that can always be plentiful.

But I'm here for the summer and need to make that drive at least once a week. I'm already shaving a lot off the fender wells and I can only imagine what my bump stops look like since I only have a couple inches of vertical suspension.

And I only have old pictures of stock suspension. I'm going to feel like I'm in a truck again. I'm a bit excited to be driving aggressively other than Tarmac. I can tell you last year around this time when I lowered it I didn't think I'd be going back to stock but who know maybe next year ill a lift...who knows that's the fun of modding our jeeps!!

Gotta do what ya gotta do to make some money these days. In New Jersey, you get pulled over fairly quickly if you don't have a front plate. I also never thought I'd lift my Jeep, but I felt my suspension wasn't as good as it should be, and the $750 seemed reasonable.

What changed?

Stock suspension...man does it feel nice to be trail rated again

View attachment 643649
What Changed? The tires look low profile which on a Latitude package I'm told is the only reason it's not badged as trail rated. (I have a 2012 Latitude). Thanks for more info, still trying to sort all these details out, this is my first Jeep product.

Here's my libby before and after. I still have a number of things to do to it, including a Rockfather lift and brush guard that are in the mail, HID headlights, and new wheels and tires. But it has come quite a long way from when I got it from the dealer a little under 2 months ago.

Well depending on which RRO lift you opted for, you're looking at $450ish without shocks or $1000-1200 for the deluxe with their a-arms and shocks. You can get the Old Man Emu lift for basically the same price. Just springs and shocks should net you ~2" of lift or so and that's about $700 or $750 I think. Or you can go all out with spacer plate, clevis, springs, shocks, and al's a-arms for about $1200-1300. Check out http://jeepinbyal.com/ you can find quality lifts ranging in prices.
