Default rustys

i dont know anybody that is running a rustys lift but i seen there stuff at the pa jeep show last month it looked real quality. i talked to them at the show, i think it was rusty himself and they seemed to be really knowlagble and that they were confident in there products before they release anything to the market. on the budget boost topic ive been through every stage of lift since i bought my jeep as my wifes daily driver until i could afford to just have it as a third vehicle. i started with a 2"bb and 33s as she didnt want 5 in lift and 37s like it is now that its mine. the problem was always handling. with the spacers the thing was all over the road so i put 3" springs front adj lowers and adj track bars and it handled like factory and looked good w 33s. after being through four lifts and seeing rustys products i would try thier 3.25 premium lift i believe it comes with thier front control arm system and adj track bars. i know everybodys on a budget, i was, but its cheaper to save your money and do it right. cant go wrong with a lifetime waranty on a product made in the usa.

If you can do it go with the coil lift, although you say you don't wheel much now you could be infected with the Jeep bug down the road (excuse the pun) and want to wheel a bit more and a coil + shocks lift will give you more IMHO.

I personally would do a coil if you can afford it...especially if you ever add more accessories (weight) down the road. It will perform better off road and probably ride better too. Plus if you ever want it higher you could add a coil spacer, body lift, or flat fender and run bigger tires

I run Rusty's 3.25 and I love it. I get great flex and it rides wonderful off road and on road. I would recommend it in a heartbeat.
