Jeep Liberty Lift Kit (KK, for 2008 and newer)
3" Suspension lift system

Old Man Emu components really are the best quality parts, though not as widely distributed. Rocky Road is proud to use only Old Man Emu parts in the design and release of this combination suspension system. We invite you to take some additional time investigating the engineering behind the Old Man Emu components.

Also available are the GR2 Heavy Duty front struts kits. These kits provide an excellent lower cost alternative to the OME struts and are often compared quite closely to the OME struts for a number of different vehicles. We've used GR2 struts for years and they have always been lovewd by our customer base.

KK Liberty suspension lifts come with....

The Rockfather suspension gets you the superior front end system, yet also helps keep prices a bit more 'in check' on the rear by using poly coil spacers in back. You stay with the stock front struts to help reduce the overall cost as well. Our revolutionary Under-the-Top® means no additional stress or other complication keeping the stock strut shock.
This is an excellent system for those on a tight budget that want the famous Rockfather ride quality and handling.

Now for a word on comparison of suspension kits for the Liberty.
There are 2 basic ways of lifting the Liberty.
There are lifts that gain height from the use of springs, and those that lift from spacers used inside and outside of the strut assembly.
Within those groups, there are then a couple sub-categories. We don't want to bash on the competition, but it is fair to share our years of engineering and testing with those shopping for lifts....

The first type of lift to touch on is any Liberty suspension lift that includes any type of internal strut spacer creates lift by crushing the front springs so that there is no uptravel (compression) left. For example... In the picture above showing our fully assembled strut, you can see our spacer on the outside on top. Now just imagine that same spacer on the inside of the strut assembly with the spring. The strut can't change length, it is always the same. So the spring is going to be squished more inside of that strut assembly.

What does this mean for you? It means very stiff handling, a bouncy stiff ride quality, an unstable feeling at highway speeds. There are lifts that will take quality springs like the Old Man Emu and combine them with these internal strut spacers, but the end result is still the same. The springs are still crushed by the internal spacers, the ride quality is diminished from its ideal comfort level, handling suffers since the springs cannot cycle as engineered, and the warranty of those is 100% null & void since they are NOT being used in the way they were engineered.  

The second style of lift uses external strut spacers. These kits exist for the sole reason of saving money. If someone wants a lift on their Jeep in the least expensive fashion, these kits do the job and we do manufacture an excellent Budget Lift system. These kits do not diminish the ride comfort such as with internal spacer strut lifts, but they don't improve the vehicle stability, comfort, and handling like the Rockfather suspensions.

Third, you have suspensions that use lifted springs. These include some of the more well-known manufacturers out there. Often, the local 4x4 shop knows little to nothing about the Liberty, but they sell these lifts readily. What we can say about these suspensions is that we receive orders regularly from many customers who already own these other big name lift kits and just can't take the harsh ride quality anymore. Only one company has engineered the proper formula for excellent riding lifted springs, and that is Old Man Emu. Anything else, you might just end up coming back to us anyway and spending several hundred more $$$ to correct the rough riding issues.

Finally, you have a system like the Rockfather which uses the best quality Old Man Emu springs, and an EXTERNAL strut spacer.
Bottom line, this is the best suspension comfiguration available. The best of all worlds with no drawbacks at all.

Rocky Road is proud to use exclusively Old Man Emu springs and struts in our Liberty Rockfather suspensions.

We are the only company on the planet offering a 2.5-3" lift with Old Man Emu springs used in the way in which they were engineered by Old Man Emu which is properly mounted inside of the strut, with a spacer outside of the strut that does not affect the proper operation and engineering of the Old Man Emu spring or strut shock.
