Default BB Decision - Zone or RC

I've had my Jeep for 3 weeks now and love it, but I cant stand the factory rake.

I'm going to purchase a spacer lift BB either tonight or tomorrow, and tires (probably 33s) sometime in the next 2 months.

I'm looking at either the 2 inch zone kit for 129.00 or the 2.5 in Rough Country kit for 139.00

Is one kit better than the other - quality-wise? How much lift will each kit actually yield.

I am open to any other brand suggestions.

-Mike

I'll assume by 'coil lift BB' you are actually talking about BB's, and not coil lifts. A BB is a spacer. It gives you the amount stated. (coils will give varying lift heights, not BB's)

For quality, a spacer is a spacer is a spacer. What you want to look at are the other components that are included - or not included. See what is missing, and decide if it is something you will want...

Teraflex BB in my opinion is the best kit... Great folks there in customer service as well!
