Well after trading in my 08 2dr last year for a mustang gt i have come to realize that i am simply not a "car guy". So i am in the hunt for a new 4dr rubicon. First mod will be lift, tires, drive shafts, and wheels so i wanna do some early research. This will be my daily driver as well as a moderate off road vehicle and beach/sand driving jeep. Some light rock crawling but nothing major. Mostly trail and mud. I want to fit 35's for now with the intent of going to 37's later on later down the road. Also trying to stay under the $1300 line for the lift itself but would like a nice complete kit. Sooooooo, recommendations???

 

Rock Krawler 2.5 Max Travel is the way to go.

 

I did a rock krawler flex kit and bolstering for $1250! Right under your limit

 

Rk all the way!

 

I just recently ordered the RK 2.5 Flex after a few weeks of reading tons of posts here and asking questions around town.

 

2.5 lift for 37's doen the road?!? I figured at least 3.5-4 inches. I wont ve cutting the fenders at all or going aftermarket fenders.

 

I went with 2.5 teraflex spring lift. If I could afford a 3.5 rk lift I would upgrade. I'd like a little more room under my fenders for my 35s. I just like the taller look. Many folks on here run 3.5 rk lift with 37s and its seems to be a good combo. Here's mine after chopping the fenders.

 

I love my teraflex 2.5" but if you have the $ get a 3" lift or bigger

 

Rough country 4" X-Series. Complete kit. Even has all the control arms. I know some say the product isnt the best, but I have the 2.5 and love it and the 4" x-series will be next. if you arent doing anything too hard then I think it will suit you.
