Can't go wrong with rough country or teraflex imho. The customer support for teraflex is awesome Joe helped me out with a lift that wasn't even their's

The reason it's so cheap is there's nothing to it...it's four plastic spacers and four shock adaptors. If all you're looking to do is lift it to fit 33's and a couple offroad trips a year then that's probably going to do you just fine. If you want to do more serious offroading I'd go with a more complete kit (ie. longer swaybar links, brake line brackets, trackbar brackets) I did a simple lift like this on my fiance's JK b/c her's will be more of a mall crawler with maybe 3 trips a year. There's nothin wrong with it.

Shocks....It all depends one what you're going to do with it. Are you going to wheel it or lift it to look good
