Default Lift Question for 13 JKU

I have looked at some many posts and websites till i am blue in the face. I am working with $1000 +/- and looking for a 3" -4" lift. I would love to find a kit with arms but dont wanna sacrifice quality due to limited budget. Please Help!!!

With a limited budget, you may want to consider a 2.5" lift instead. Or start saving another $1K for drive shafts.

Rock Krawler 2.5" Flex would be the kit we recommend for you. Since you have a JKU you will only get about 2.5" of lift. Going as high as we you want to go will require a much more complete kit. PM us if you want to discuss some options we have.

Good luck with the build!
