It just so happened that I am in the middle of researching coilover systems and I really liked the black rubicon, so I took that opportunity to ask and learn - exactly what this forum is for.

Thanks to those that did reply to my questions. I learned a lot From you.
No problem answering anyones questions, Sometimes I miss threads or forget about them!

The point of the thread was that our off the shelf EVOlever Coilover system IS being used on EVO1 for racing! Its the exact same suspension system we install everyday on our customers rigs!

Ok, drag link flip kit makes sense.

My wheels are 4.5" BS, but I do have spacers I could run to get them to 3"
To answer your question,

the bare minimum on a 4 door JK,

Front EVO MFG Bolt on Coilover
Rear EVO MFG Bolt on Coilover
EVO MFG Drag Link Flip
EVO MFG Front Lower adjustable control arms (Currie Lowers is another good option)
Front Driveshaft (JE Reel 1310 or 1350)

The Coilover kits include, brakelines, bumpstops, swaybar links, hardware etc...

The rims should work with the spacers. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Nice JK. In the process of trying to find a budget friendly coilover system myself.

Thanks Chris! I stayed up until mid-night last night researching everything and this is the exact build I am moving towards, but may go with a different front DS.

This thread helped you sell one of the bolt on kits! Thanks again!
