thanks alot i just wish i new some one in nj that has one lifted so i could check it out.. and do you think its well worth the price ?? i know you get what you pay for.

There are actually a few lifted KJs in Jersey. Most of the price in the JBA kits comes from their coil overs. I'm going with either Ironman or OME springs with Bilstien shocks all around. Ironman's are cheaper but OME's will net you more lift especially with all of the little extra's you can add, i.e. clevis lift, top plates, rear upper iso's just to name a few. There are also many thread's on here that talk about various lifts and the pros and cons about them.

all im looking for is like 2.5 to 3 in of lift.. i drive it every day so im not lookng to go all crazy about the lift but just something good and something that wont sag after a few months or a year. so the jba kit is a good thing to think about your saying ??

I love my lift, have had it since november-ish. It's really easy to do, and I had never done anything remotely close to it before. It's nice even for a DD too.

If you have the money for the JBA go for it. All I'm saying is that you can lift it for less then half the price with Ironman/OME and a few extras which are very easy to put on.

I agree!!!

All of the lifts stated above are excellent, jba wouldnt sell it if it was garbage. Im running a iron man OME hybrid of sorts and everything is tip top. If you were to duplicate it would cost you just between 800-900 $, that will save you some cash to put towards some nice tires. And if you have ever changed out springs shocks or struts on just about any vehicle your well within the skill set to install the lift, im down to help you and more then likely have a shop we can use. A lift and air tools cut the install time down significantly.
