Has anyone heard of this lift?
It's a couple hundred dollars cheaper than SL. Since the WK and XK have the same suspensions, it should work, shouldn't it?
Opinions...?

That kit is basically just the BDS kit being sold by their sister company (Zone). I believe this kit will have the issues that Mike (El Cid) noted in the way the rear lift is achieved, and the reason BDS stopped selling it.
Also, it's really not any cheaper than the SL because the SL comes with the AEV module whereas Zone requires you to purchase it separately. See Note 4:
So... since the AEV module costs ~$300, add that to the price of the Zone and you're really not saving any money. I'd rather go with the SL, especially since they've refined their design.4. Although unusual, if ESP problems persist the AEV EGR module can be used to dramatically reduce the issues.
Hmmm... I'll have to go back and dig up Mike's review.
This thread has a review that's rather favorable of the now defunct BDS aka Zone lift.

El Cid agrees with what everyone says El Cid says about my agreement.
