The only guy around I know that has done one of these is TW at USA 4x4, give him a bell and I'm sure he will be able to help you out in regards to this mate.

There are a few lifts for the KJ - OME is probably the pick since it's local (ie Aussie).
if you are in Sydney - then Suburban is "the shop"...If in Melbourne then I'd say Tony @ USA4x4.
If neither of those let us know & we'll direct you to the local Jeep shop.
Also heres a link to a Suppliers list on the AusJeep Forum site..... |

If your wife trades the KJ in for a TJ i'm sure Lexx could lift it to the sky for you! Got any new pics Lexx?  |

Got the lift & bar done at ARB, looks very good. 50mm lift with OME shocks, rides 100% better. Will post a pick tomorrow when it stops raining.  |

Robbo,
are they OE mudflaps on the back, 'cos I just bought a
KJ Renegade and the flaps are way too long. I already
ripped 1 off backing up the gutter, and i've only had it a week
so imagine how pissed i am. |

They are from dealer, all four we purchased after buying the car. The limited side step was only attatched with ONE I repeat ONE screw each but they had to go to make way for front flaps anyhow. Which by the way do a good job of keeping crap off the doors. They are expensive being geniune and all. Happy new year. |
