100% opinion based. What do you plan to do with your jeep? (be specific and I'll be specific back )

I'm wanting to do a good 4" lift that will give my jeep a great look and great off road ability. I don't do much crazy crawling because I don't have the underbody protection that I would like to have yet. I love having a stiff suspension so that when I corner on the road I don't get a lot of body role. I mostly do a lot of trails like river beds and light crawling. I was originally looking at some fox shocks but I figured the Rancho would be a good second place. I'm also wanting to keep my budget around 2000$

Just throwing a lift on a jeep does not make it more off road capable

My plan on tires is 35's but If I did a long arm I could be willing to go for some 37's

Yeah def well aware that it doesn't make it more off road capable. I wouldn't just rip into some crazy trails with only a lift. There is a huge mental wish list of stuff to do to this thing for sure. It's all part of the fun. 👍

Have you thought about Off Road Evolution's Enforcer kit? Comes with their Plush ride coils 3" or 4" and you can pair with any shock of choice and also has option for Drag link flip kit so no need for adjustable track bar.

EVO: Suspension / Steering, EVO ENFORCER Package by EVO MFG.

Has alot of good reviews, I feel it is a great option to build as you go. Another option I am heavily considering.


Long arms are great for rock crawling. Short arms seem more of what trails you run and less expensive.
