Default Lift Kit suggestions.
Hello all. I am currently looking at Rough Country 3.5 lift kit from extremeterrain.com. What are your thoughts on this? Please let me know what you guys think and if I should go with another one. I am doing this on a budget. Thank you.

Look around for opinions on:

Trackbar Drop brackets - (as opposed to brackets that raise from the axle)

Drop Pitman - (as opposed to draglink flip)

Stop batting him around like a cat toying around with a mouse before he finally sinks his teeth in.

You know you're just leading him into the more important tire size question.
