Default help! I need lift kit advice.

I am putting a set of 35s on my JK. I want to get the best bang for my buck on the lift. I'm willing to spend some money but I'm not trying to break the bank either. My jk is a daily driver so I want it to ride well on and off road. Can I get a little help from my JK brothers?

RockKrawler 1.5" triple rate coils are a pretty good bang for your buck. They give about 2.5" of actual lift give or take and ride incredible on the street and off road.
I have 34"s run bump stops and longer front sb links and longer shocks.

^ +1 - I am doing the same and am very happy with this setup! I added longer rear SB links as well.

I just installed a Rock Krawler 2.5" flex kit about 2 weeks ago on my 2013 JKR. I got 4" of lift which is way more than I was aiming for. That said it rides awesome on road and is a flexi beast off road (I did Uwharrie last weekend). Word to the wise, research the front sway bar end link length carefully, I broke one that came in the kit when one side of my sway bar flipped over. It wasn't long enough. Big thumbs up for Rock Krawler though.

Sounds like you found a good reason to get rid of the e-disco and buy a set of disconnects.
