I have a 2010 Jeep Liberty limited 4x4 - Forest Green. First time owning a Jeep. Love it. Fun vehicle to drive and still rides comfortably.

Can't wait to do extra things on my KK down the road - rough country lift kit, bigger tires, roof rack/rails, and etc...

You must really hate that KK , sorry
If you are looking at a Rough Country lift then we know you hate it, worst possible way to lift

OME is the only lift available anymore that you will like, gives good ride, good handling, lasts a long time
If interested can give you the full run down of what you need

front:
927 OME springs
shocks, either Bilstein or OME
teraflex front bumpstops

rear: OME 731 springs
OME 132L shocks or bilstein 24-185660
2 hockey pucks bolted down to lower springs perch for rear bumpstops

with this you will not have too much trouble, going higher it causes rear to shift to one side more and rub exhaust on driveshaft

Wow - thanks for the info. I will defintely look into doing it this way. How much lift will this give me and what size diameter tire can i go up to?

I didn't know about the bad on using spacer for lifts - until you told me. Around here is what they suggested to me to go with when I had asked about lifts.

Thanks again for you help.

Its an easy sell for most to sell you a spacer lift, they just sell and run, don't care about long term etc
with 2.5 inches of lift you can run 265-75-16s or 265-70-16s , both same height
you will lose some power and gas mileage but not bad
On one of mine ( the 03 ) I run 2.5 inches of lift with 265-70-16s but with 4.10 gearing to compensate for the larger tires etc
