Default what lift are you running?

I'm about to drop the hammer on a rock krawler 3.5 x factor mid arm .. and 4.88 gears. I leave in a few months and wanna set myself up for the drive. Just seeing what everyone is running. My 35s with my leveling kit is just too small nowlol

I have an Old Man Emu with the HD coils. I netted about 3 or so inches of lift. The 35's do look a little small tough would like to go to 37s but idk how the d30 would like that. I highly recommend the complete kit that northridge 4x4 offers. I love my lift and would buy it if i had to do things over again..

I bought a Skyjacker 3" with hydro shocks, thinking it was a good deal. I don't recommend it, installation is a pain and I've swapped the rear support structure out. After I get my money's worth from it I'll be going to a TF 3" or 4" long arm.

Hmm. Yeah, I've always heard great things about rock krawler. I wanna go 37s eventually so if it looks a bit small with 35s for a while, oh well. I do like the ome kit, but I'm looking for the control arms too. my Jeeps really "flighty" on the roads at speed, and I like the look of the rear axle moved an inch backwards. I'm gonna call Dave at Northridge once I get back to Alaska from leave and figure it out, since I don't wanna get a 3.5 and end up netting 4.5 or so
