OK, so I've been reading, researching, and of course pricing lifts. Many of you suggest JBA. I only want to go 2-2.5" for now. Only thing is, I do not know a thing about suspension. I've always been an 'under the hood' kinda gal. I don't know if I need springs, shocks, or arms.....I don't even know what arms are....

Intednded use of my KK is my daily driver for now, and some moderate off roading. Whatcha think?

You'll want to get the new coil/shocks on all 4....

The new A arms aren't required, usually wait a bit before getting those.... :)

Thanks guys...I recently moved into a new house...with the light bar, I have literally a 1/4" of clearance to park in the garage. Pondering whether or not to lift now or later. I'm buying (a house) next year....i'm a total freak about parking inside.

I'm 5'6" and I like that cause I rarely bump my head on stuff.;) :p

Seriously, if your KK can't fit in the garage, then I would wait on the lift till I found that house with a bigger carhole. Not much sense in having a garage that you can't get the rig inside of....is there? :D

Ditto. Especially if you want to be able to do oil changes in the rain or wax in the shade.

Funny thing is my wife is about 5'10" and she is constantly hitting her head since I did the daystar last year yet I never do anymore and I am 6'4".
