My first Jeep, and i'm about to take advantage of the 10% off at DTD. I'm going with 35-12.5 16 Nitto mud grapplers on 16x8 crager soft 8's. As far as a lift, i'm thinking of either the Rough Country 2.5" w/ shocks, or the OME 2". Which one would you guys go with? The jeep won't see anything to crazy, mostly light trails, mud and deep sand on the beach. Any rubbing issues with either lift? Anything else you guys would recommend? (other than new gears) Thanks in advance, this forum kicks ass!!!

 

go with the OME, its a sweet lift. get adjustable track bars if you can afford them right now.

 

Yeah The OME looks awesome. The main thing that attracts me to the Rough Country though, is it looks easier to remove/reinstall if I need warranty work done.

 

A lift will not void your warranty. No need to remove it.

 

Yeah I know, but you know if a driveshaft goes, or something like that, they will say the lift caued the failure (which it probably did).

 

bump........

 

The OME has SHORTER shocks than the RC 2.2's seem to be, and has very little flex over a stock JK...but they do ride swell.



Between the two, I'd get the RC.

 

Do you think i'll have any rubbing issues? If not, then i'd definatly go with the RC kit.
