Re: TJ Lift kit recommendation
Seems to me that isn't really a "kit" as I see them -- it's parts from
various manufacturers that you could go get yourself. I suppose any "kit"
could be that way. But when you buy, say, a Skyjacker kit, you're getting
all Skyjacker parts. You buy this kit and you're gett DT shocks (available
everywhere) OME shocks (again, all over the place) and a few other goodies.
I haven't looked yet, but I'd see if that could be put together cheaper by
buying the parts separately.
By the way, I have the Rough Country lift -- pad $500 shipped to my door.
Not bad off road, but really lives up to its name -- very rough on road.

Re: TJ Lift kit recommendation
I looked over the site you showed... had to let you know about my
experience, although every one is different.
I found with my 4 inch lift (pro comp) that even with the transfer case
spacers I had vibrations, so I got the SYE/CV kit like Erik did, and now its
much better.
Also, I had to get the gears done, my stock gears were 3.07 and I went up to
4.10. Also to save money I had them put in my truetracs (limited slips) at
the same time.
But man I love it.
