Default 3" lift question

I want to lift my Unlimited but have a couple questions. I like both the 3" FT Utimate and the 3.5" Rubicon Express and was wondering which is the better choice? How do they ride? Are they going to ride similar to the stock suspension or will they give a rough ride for on street driving?
Thanks,
CC

Default 3 inch lift

I lifted my JK unlimited 3 inches, and threw on some 33/11.5 tires. i really have not noticed much of a difference, with the exception being i have to slow down in the turns. Just make VERY certain your steering wheel is COMPLETLY straight when it gets an alignment or the ESP will no malfunction. Also, you may want to have the "tow in" adjusted to -.5 degrees from factory specs. it seems to help with the ESP.





JK Unlimited:
3 inch Lift
33/11.5 tires
Safari doors
Skid Row oil pan/trans skid plate
Mopar offroad rear bumper
Plenty of "JEEP SCARS" from Paragon AP
