KK or KJ?

[Mostrobiscotti]

I will be finishing up with my YJ recovery vehicle in the next few weeks, going to start with my next off road project,, got permission from the better half to pick one, and just one of the other jeeps to do.. Having issues deciding between the KJ or KK to mod.. Def more aftermarket options for the KJ, but we all have to admit that the KK looks good lifted n muddy..

 

[yellocoyote]

Seems that the KK guys are struggling a little bit more than the KJ owners to find aftermarket parts, like you already said. That would be a determining factor for me.

That, and I'm biased. Mod the KJ.

 

[eyehatetofu]

KJ. They're cooler.

 

[Mostrobiscotti]

Yea was leaning towards the KJ, it happens to be a limited,, nothing like a loaded chromed up off roader,, def will have to swap that chrome out

I vote to mod the KJ also.

[TruLiberty]

KJ all the way.

 

[DirtyKK]

The better choice is obviously the KK. You should come over to LOST, theres way more KKs over there.

 

[HoosierJeeper]

KJ, as the KK has more warranty left.

 

[SETexasLibby]

KK since its nostalgic of the old XJ body style, plus due to limited aftermarket you need to be more creative and its just nice.



P.S

Chrome is for motorcycles and sports cars.

 

[Mostrobiscotti]

Both sides have great points, i guess i will see where the shopping takes me,, both of them have the same amount of warranty left, KJ has 60000 miles and is 06 while KK has 9200 and is 09, Am a member of LOST and they def gave many ideas for KK

13 days to decide,, im sure in the end, i will MOD them both and show pics,, Dave, your close to me,, we should meet up so i can check out the KJ for ideas

Dirty KK, can you provide some details on the green kk at the top of your pic post? Lift, basket, tires....etc

I purchased a kk last week and was searching for some mods.
