Frankenlift Rev.2 Left Front Coilover
Frankenlift Rev.2 Right Front Coilover

The Frankenlift is a 2.5" lift kit built by All J products. Widely considered the best lift kit for the Liberty, it's a combination of many different lift kit brands. The front rubber spring spacers contribute 1" and the front Old Man Emu springs contribute 1.5" for a total of 2.5" in the front. The rear Old Man Emu springs contribute 1.5". The Liberty is 1" lower in the front from the factory and leveled out by the 1" difference between the front and rear of the Frankenlift. The front coils and struts come pre-assembled and can be purchased separately from the rear coils and shocks.
