Not going to happen with the stock control arms and driveshafts......then add a new pair of axles. I mean, you could get them to fit, but lots of stuff will suddenly wear out real quick.

I am also interested in the Jk aiRock system. Altough I do find it strange that there is no mention of the JK system on ORO's website. This is where I am gathering most of my information: http://www.quadratec.com/products/92043_710.htm

I have a few questions about this kit that maybe some of you that own it can answer. My goal is to have 37" or 38" tires max with Rock Jock Dana 60's front and rear. I was under the impression that in addition to the AiRock system I would also need to purchase a suspension arm kit. AndyR posted that he runs 37" tires with stock Ruby suspension components. Is there a downside to running the stock suspension arms and not upgrading?

Is there an equivilent height increase to coil suspensions at max off-road height? ie: 4"/6". They give measurements from the ground to the bottom of the door sill which doesn't help me because my Rubi hasn't been delivered yet. The product also says the shocks will be able to travel 9.5 inches. Is that good enough articulation for serious off-road? What does comparable 4-6" coil lift kits give for shock articulation length?

The kit is a 4" kit (I believe they might be working on a 6")

I run 37s, but had to put a 1" BL in, as the the tars were rubbin' at full stuff. ORO lists the kit on their webstore page.

Call ORO if you want the real info.
