There are some people with lifted Jeeps in Qatar, not really sure about legality. I've asked the shops and they said it was fine. Follow the other posters and check with the authorities.

Which lift kit are you getting? I'm thinking about it also but it seems that unless you put some major money into spacers, wheels and tires, a 2-3" lift would be perfect for the desert and pre-running. Anything higher would cause major stability issues. Just my thinking but would be good to hear yours.

Good luck.
