I ran the MC lift with 35's and cut stock fenders on our 2012 JKUR for a while. Rode and handled great, and worked well offroad. They make some decent lift kits. Suspension, tires, and brakes are places where you don't want to cheap out. Spend the money to do it right once, and you won't regret it. Cheap out on any of these parts, and you might hate life every time you have to drive your Jeep anywhere if it drives or handles like shit.

Yes we used the Stock Control Arms and their complete kit. The GC Brackets put the control arms level and caster at factory settings.

I am not sure if Metalcloak has this in stock either, their website doesn't say anything.

I have these, got them recently. Much quicker turn around than some other flairs that I got from them. I think they were slower in the powder coating department. Gave up my Quadrateck AEV lift/springs and Bilstein shocks. They were like riding on a wooden roller coaster. Changed to what you are looking at and have the best ride of my life now. It rides real soft on black top, really love the dual rate coils the most. Note: The diameter of your rim and tire effect your ride quality too. Those large wheels with skinny tires ride really hard too. If you have any other questions... ask away! PS... Dynatrac Ball Joints and Progrip Big Brakes, Method 106 wheels and Toyo 37x12.5x17s
