Working on one right now,not cheap but will be bolt on.The concept is good.
It would be great if someone were to make a pre-fabbed kit that could be ordered and installed in a KJ. Perhaps some stock or parts brought in from other Jeep models to keep the production cost down, and the options for aftermarket upgrades open once you've got it installed.
Actually 3 currently built SFA KJ's ride better then the IFS versions,long arms give a amazing ride quality.They also beat them up pretty good offroad and are not in any way show queens.As far as mpg's I can't say what they are getting but when I get my SFA done I am expecting about a 30%+ increase in mpg's due to being able to finally gear correctly for the tires and weight of my KJ,and I can still pull 20-21mpg's on the highway.As of right now(and known) there is 9 SFA KJ's,one was a show rig built by Detroit Lockers,there was one show SFA KJ built in Australia.The rest are beaten offroad pretty good.Right, and at the end of the day, just how many people really need an SFA set up for their KJ?
Other than pose value, most people have it mostly for show. Since the Liberty has been introduced I have yet to see ONE here in the most populated area of B.C.!
Looks cool, great!
Say good bye to fuel economy and handling.
Ever wonder why Chrysler didn't do it from the factory? It's not cost, IFS cost's alot more to develop than SFA!
It's done for practicality. It is better for all round driving like most KJ's do. If your lucky 10% really use their 4X4 for real off road use.
I agree.I have taken my KJ to the max with IFS and now it's time to upgrade.For what I want it would not be cost effective,or cheaper,to build a TJ to my exact wanting that my KJ is getting since my KJ is already paid off.i don't think there is that many sfa liberties and the reason is cost. I would love to have a sfa on my kj and so would many others. Besides improving offroad performance it would be unique and one of a kind. I think that is the real reason people sfa their kjs. Anyone can mod a tj or a cherokee but the kj would be unique. i am not a showy person but I do mod my KJ to use off-road with the products that are available.
