Default Lift Advice

Ok. So I have starting shopping and built me a cart at Northridge.... its pretty pricey but would you guys say the OME with the full tractions adjustable front and rear track bars worth the $? I am about to pull the trigger, I want to do a lift really bad.



I need some advice though, for $1000 is there a better way to go than OME or is OME one of those deals where you pay for what you get?

1. Is what is in that kit all I will need (I have the JKS discos so I will be running disconnected offroad), or will i need bumpstops, driveshafts ,brake lines, etc? I want to go min to not affect anything but the suspension warrenty. I plan on keeping my 32's and not go any bigger.

2. Will I have any problems with flex, does the OME give plenty of flex.

3. I am going to assume that northridge sells the HD springs, right now I have the Basic DX bumper, with the smittybilt winch, and skid plate up front, and I am about to add the gas tank and trans/oil pan skid plate (rock hard), and of course I have a hard top. I dont really plan on changing out the rear bumper, as I feel other mods are more important to me. Should I be OK with the HD springes or will they give me to much lift?

4. How hard would the whole set up be to install? ... I know the lift itself looks easy enough thru the write up, but what about the front and rear track bars?
