Here is my lil mini liberty with a mix of lift parts. Sitting at 4-4.5 inches of lift. Trimmed front bumper. Fabricated brush guard/tow hooks points, 2 inch receiver and has built in tow attachments for my tow bar. Threw on some 2007 JK wheels with 265x17 Nitto Grapplers and bam lil mini monster. Liberties are a fun challenge. I've built all kinds of Jeeps this is my first IFS Jeep. Next who knows maybe a solid front swap.

Now that's what I'm talking about. That front guard receiver.
Very nice!

The guard is bed liner black. Measurement in the front is right at 22.25 and rear 23. They were around 18.25 when I got it. There are a few items I still want but I'm working on another big brother Jeep whcih soaks up alot of money.

OK Thanks
So you've got a 3.25 inch lift then not 4.5 inches
New stock they were at 19 so that's where we measure from, not where they had sagged to. If so I've done ones here that would have 5 inches of lift now :happy175:
Looks good though

Yeah thanks. True 4.5 is where it will end up with a Aussie locker in the back and 4.10 gears and other stuff I fab onto it basket/sliders/and rear bumper guard and that will be it for the lil fellow then back to my main crawler. Wanted to play with a IFS Jeep and I love the break over angle of these wished that Jeep would have pushed initially for a SFA model probably could have been a much greater seller. But I do enjoy a challenge.

Looks good. I like the brush guard better than all the ones on the market. I think if you made a few more, people would buy them.

I agree it is! It's what I've been asking for since I got my KK.

That front brush guard does indeed look pretty sharp.
Maybe slowcrawler is onto something.


Hey Cherrie, maybe you can get Jeepin by Al to start fabricating these for the KK and use you Liberty for the prototype!

Thanks for the positive comments. Had several folks down here ask me where I bought it and some offers. My goal was to create an all on one set up. It serves many purposes...integrated tow hooks and tow bar attachment...two inch receiver for anything I want to plug in...some front end protection...a place for extra lighting...and as well to give it a more aggressive look. I have a winch on my other Jeep that may be retrofitted into this as well...undecided right now. I left enough room that i could plug in a which receiver bracket into it but it would affect my approach angles so we'll see in time how I go.

Been waiting on a KK to try a Matrix onto, we all know the way they bolt on is the same, just need one to try it on
So if anyone wants to be the first
Of course you won't get to keep it but you'll know it fits and works and what it looks like
Plus just maybe get your picture on JBAs site
I have a Matrix sitting on the work bench just waiting

In the process now of building a rear bumper guard, my version not WAAGs version. Hope to be done in a week or so and will post some pics when complete. It will utilize the standard 2inch receiver hitch.
