Default Picked up my KK yesterday
'Evening folks.
I've been a long term Jeep owner, and my KK sport is my latest. I traded in my diesel JK unlimited on the 3.7 Cherokee. I must say I'm very impressed with the KK - it's much better than I expected.
After owning a JK, I find the accessory market a little tame. Apart from ebay US, where do you buy stuff from?
The standard Sport mags have to go first thing; they really do nothing for the truck. I don't mind the 18s on the Limited - but tyre choice is narrow.

I look forward to chatting with you all. I have to go and change my info now.

Good One Rooster !!!!

My KK 3.7 has just clocked up 1,000klm.........
Mine is red, therefore it will go faster than yours !!
The motor & transmission is just starting to loosen up. Until about 800klm, it was so tight, that it felt like there was a caravan attached to it ! Hopefully at around 10,000klm, I'll have some useful feedback for other existing / potential owners.

Hi andyperth.
Ill health is preventing me from any more hard core off-road cruising. The Jk is an outstanding off road weapon, but it's suspension for on road use is more than I can tolerate.

The KK suits my driving style these days - more off road driving and touring, rather than crawling around mountains. I loved the JK, and spent a bomb on it.
But I'll never use it to it's potential again, and I'd had enough of driving a diesel as well. I'm a petrol man now after owning diesels for the past few years.
