Help me decide...
I'm sure I will get a variety of opinions on this but am looking for everyone's input.
I'm very close to pulling the trigger on a new lift. I just ordered my new 37's and have narrowed the choices down to a few different Rock Krawler kits. I'm pretty confident the 3.5 will be big enough with my flat flares and 1" body lift.
Money is of course a concern, but not THE main issue. This will be my daily driver and I need it to handle very well on the highway as well as on the trails on the weekend, so I don't mind spending a few extra bucks now if it will be worth it in the long run. I don't want to have to upgrade over and over again.
I was leaning towards the Long arm 3.5 http://www.rockkrawler.com/?r_intro=1 but is it really worth the added expense and once you go long arm there's no going back....what about resale? Then I was looking at the x factor plus mid arm http://www.rockkrawler.com/?r_intro=1 and their basic x factor mid arm http://www.rockkrawler.com/?r_intro=1 .
Decisions decisions.....4 link, 3 link, mid arm, long arm...what to do?
Anyone with advice or experience with any of these lifts would be a huge help.

I think for that amount of lift the short arms are fine. If you go with the x mid arm it is a very complete kit. That being said , the kits are made to be easily upgraded so if you find you want or need the 3 or 4 link down the road you can get it. If the tax man is kind get it all now!! If you order expect about a month lead time.
