Well it is YOUR truck, and You paid the man - I suppose if you want to post details it's nice to ask but it's not like you signed a NDA or anything.

Besides, it's good advertising for him. We're a picky lot, but if they did as good as we hope he's breaking new ground and could easily attract customers from around the country. Gotta advertise!

Interesting...

Well if your headed to Moab, please feel free to stop by LR in Glenwood. There is a couple of us at the dealership that would be interested in checking out your setup.

Which shot? The suspension pics above are his G I think.

Though I like the way you're thinking. It might be possible to design some sort of drop brackets to lower the pick-up points on an IF/RS Rover. Of course that would require longer half shafts too as well as any number of other things I'm sure. But it's an idea.

You're correct. There's actually a lot to it. I was shocked by the number of parts in the kit. Mine should be done in early January and I'll post detailed pictures.

Fitting 35's has been easy with some minor trimming. 37's are possible but would require some slight modifications to the rear door. I'm not sure if it's worth it.

Why so cryptic and such a lack of explanation? If you guys came up with a well engineered product just share the details already.

He only paid $10k for it, he has to ask the shop if he can take pictures of his own truck and post them on the internet!

No need to bust the guy's balls - he didn't spend your money doing it so good value or bad it's for him to decided.

But as Eniam17 said, share already!

You'd find pictures of my truck boring since it's still stock. Once it's finished I will post detailed pictures. Looks like early/middle of January.

I'd post pictures of the kit but there's only one and it's installed on a truck already. Mine is being made now.

Good value or bad value? Tough question to answer since this is the only option available. Makes it tough to shop around. Also, I really won't be able to answer the "is it worth it" question until I get a chance to spend some time in the vehicle.

If anyone has a 6" lift available that costs less than $10k please let me know. I'm guessing not.

I have nothing to do with the development or sale of this lift kit. I'm simply a customer, an excited customer.

Read zelatore's post above. He has the right idea.

The lift is done. I'm 6'4" and wanted to give the picture some scale. Next week we'll trim the wheel wells to fit bigger tires. The skid plate is also being modified to increase ground clearance. Stock air bags are maintained. The green full sized Autobiography in the background is next.



I'm guessing I caused some confusion with this picture. This is not my truck. It's the finished prototype owned by the the gentleman who designed the lift kit.

I purchased the Green Autobiography for my wife and planned on lifting it. But, when she saw the finished truck she decided it sat too high for her. Jack now has my supercharged sport instead of the full-sized.

Why not describe what you're doing then if you can't give pics? I'm not trying to give you a hard time ,but to come onto an enthusiast board and post about this amazing lift that seems to be the first of its kind and keep it so secretive just seems odd. What's in it??? Is it basically equivalent to an expensive body lift? Is it giving more undercarriage clearance? Is he fabricating all the parts himself ? I feel like I'm begging for details. I guess that's my fault though, not anyone else's ....

I'm curious to see how the axles hold up on this as they likely won't. I've got a 2016 RR in the shop that had the right front half shaft snap when the customer was stuck in the snow. I'll take a pic tomorrow when I put it on the lift.
