I was looking but didn't see any post on the differences between the Full Traction Econo, Premium and Ultimate. Could anyone give me the quick and dirty on what the differences are in those kits? I was reading on northridge and 4wd, but couldn't really tell...I see extra parts in the pics but have no idea what is what. Thanks in advance to anyone who would elaborate...

 

Look at it on the Quadratec site. It lists every component in the different kits.

 

Those descriptions are pretty much identical to the descriptoins on 4wd and northridge both...I guess I'm looking for some insight on how much difference there really is with these kits. I'm really unsure which one I need. My JK will be a daily driver first, medium duty crawler second. I'm unclear if I must get the ultimate, or if the premium would be fine...

Any insight would be appreciated.

Also, this thread is about Full Traction only. (Note: I know everyone has their favorites -- I kindly ask that nobody suggestions other suspensions. Thanks!)

 

I would suggest searching the forum for the previous posts on lifts....especially the older messages where folks were just installing theres and reporting the differences. It boils down to you get what you pay for.....if you love the way your JK handles as stock, you're going to want the more expensive kits, they'll let you dial in your handling a lot better than a basic kit will. I'm fairly money strapped right now so I ordered the Black Diamond 3" lift. It comes with more "stuff" than the other entry level kits and can be found for less than $500. I can live with a little roughness until I add adjustable arms later this year. I'm waiting on my kit to get here but like I mentioned earlier, you can find good, useful info in the older posts.....

Hope that helped.

 

ok
econo. is just springs and some drop brackets for your track arms

premium flex is same as econo only it has new control arms to adress caster and pinion angles

ultimate flex is basicly the same as the premium except the control arms are adjustable so you can dial in your set up the way you want.

 

Teraflex. Sorry, I had to.

 

Thank you. Thats exactly what I was looking for...it just wasn't 100% clear on the sites I was looking.

 

And if you need it quick, the econo is available as well as the premium kit I believe.... the ultimate kit is still not shipping...
