So whats everyones advice on a lift.. What brand?? Looking to go with a 4 inch.. Talked to a guy today said to go with skyjacker.. I liked the rubicon kit myself..

Thoughts everyone??
The 4.5" Rubicon Express HD kit is the most complete. You'll still need to buy shocks though. It rides great!
BDS. Gotta love the no-BS guarantee.....
Well a few questions you need to answer first,
What do you use your Jeep for? how big a tire do you want to run? bias or radials? Is it a DD, weekend pavement, occassional trail, or hardcore trails, etc, etc. How much of a good ride do you want and need?

I personally have gone 4 routes in lifted 7's and my latest Jeep I am SOA and going with RE reverse eye springs. I just need the clearance for some rocks. :laugh:

If you are going to stay with a 4", I would opt for a wider spring front kit from a YJ and make the changes as you go for the front. BDS and RE are top in my book, Rancho ride nice after a year, Superlift are stiff as are rough country, tuff country, etc. You get what you pay for in a ride.
35s.. Drive it in street a little..Not a DD.. Trailer it to colorado.. Not going to jump it off any cliffs..Not going to do any crawling in it..
BDS might be your best bet depending on your budget. RE is nice, but pricey. I would go greasable shackles, replace your pitman arm to a 4" drop arm, new tie rod ends, drag link and u-joints in your drive shafts. Nice Jeep BTW
