Default Which Lift!

My Mom is getting some 35x12.50R15's on her Jeep and I was wondering which lift to go with:

1. Full Traction 3" Economy Lift
2. SkyJacker 3.5" Standard Lift

The SkyJacker has an extra .5" of clearence. If We got the FT lift, I think I would also get the 3/4" spacers as well.

I think FT has a good quality lift myself. With all of the problems I've been hearing about Skyjacker, I would avoid it. Teraflex is also a good option.

I've got the Skyjacker 4". I didn't know they made a 3.5". Anyway, I'm happy with mine. Yeah, there's the Trackbar bracket issue, but I see no problem if you use Skyjacker's new brace or have it gusseted, or even better, both. I would do the same thing with the Black Diamond lift also. Besides, the bracket issue is nothing new, TJ's suffered the same fate. It' just ashame that some didn't design a better way for the JK, but look at all of the problems some are having with their JK. Remember, you always here about the Bad, but rarely about all of the Good, just watch your nightly news and you'll see what I mean. The same applies here.
