NOt 100% sure but its been in negotiations for some time now. I work in conjunction with King Springs as they're my manufacturer and we had been discussing the upcoming testing days out at QR with the officials to be NCOP Certified only recently.

I would be careful about assumptions around Jeep Warranties and Lifts (or any other non-Mopar modification). If you read your owners manual they usually have a section in there that warns people that installation of non-approved (ie Non-Mopar supplied and installed) lifts etc CAN violate warranty claims (if they deem it can be related to the mod). Now a Lift is unlikely to be pointed to as a reason for turning down an engine related claim, but it would certainly be referenced for CV failure, tailshaft Ujoints, or any other driveline or suspension related failure post the mod. Of course its up to the individual dealer service mgr in many cases. I have had engine related warranty work done (EGR pipe broke) and it was fixed without drama (and it would have been obvious to them that I have a 3" lift and many other things done to my Jeep. If it had been the pinion bearing they would probably have made me pay for it. So go into any mods with your eyes open and don't just expect Jeep to honour any old claim.

Totally correct Glen. There is a hard and fast rule in Jeeps' Warranty book but it is always up to Manager Discresion.

I should add that I got my lift (for my KJ CRD) from STU (nearly two years ago) and could not be happier with it. I have had no problems whatsoever and continue to ask alot of my vehicle at Camp Coffs, last Jambo, and at the end of this week the Flinders Ranges and Simpson Desert.

Good input from everyone, thanks. I'll give my Jeep dealer a shout as well.
Yep, pity there's not much around for the KK. Would like to get my hands on a decent bullbar as well.
