You can get the Superlift 4" lift for exactly the same price including shipping. I'd get the Superlift if I were you.

putting a less-than-quality lift on your jeep is the easiest way to ruin your new jeep. I have done it before and will never skimp on the lift again. Full-Traction all the way!

I don't know what a quality lift is for my truck that is why I asked, this is a learning process for me, I'm sure I'll be posting many questions in the near future, Thanks for all the help so far

well the control arms were kind of a waste of money because they aren't adjustable and i've heard bad things about the quick disconnects and the track bar relocation brackets. If i were you i would cancel the order and go with a better quality kit. I think the Old man emu kit can be bought right now for around 600 and the full traction economy kit can be had for around 550 i think with shocks. Then you can upgrade the arms to adjustable as money becomes available. You could do this with the skyjacker kit to if you sent back the arms.
