More suspension lift options.... coming soon?

[Matt]

Well every once in a while I send out emails to all the suspension lift manufacturers to see if anyone is developing an XK/WK lift kit.

Got a hit back from Rough Country this morning... the guy who emailed me said he heard they're going to do one but don't expect to see anything for at least a year.

So that's good in a way. At least they're planning on making a kit. Also he forwarded some pertinent info that I gave him that may now provide us a better kit:
1) we really need 5" to adequately fit 33s on a commander
2) we want more options than just a big spacer up front like the superlift. Better struts and stiffer springs would be a nice "upgraded" kit.

So keep our fingers crossed that more companies start heading this direction!!

That's pretty cool! For the price of some of these lifts and the issues that don't get addressed is crap :)

Exactly. I've been lifting vehicles for a looong time now and for what's offered in the current superlift kit, that's "normally" an $1100-$1200 kit in the rest of the market. For the $1800-$2000 most kits come with all new springs and upgraded shocks

With the recent interest in suspension lifts (i think theres 5 members here seriously considering the SL in the next 6-8 months) I sent a follow up inquiry to RC to see if/when they are going to make a lift.
