I heard that the 2 inch body lift causes wayyyy too much roll when going around turns. Also, I agree with you about the look of aftermarket fenders but if i had to pick one..itd be the bushwacker pocker style ones..although they dont give THAT much more clearance for flexing.

Hey WOL, how could this lead to a lopsided Jeep? Is it because the coil would over-compress and then not return back to its original height?
