Really awesome to hear everyone's opinions. I think after speaking to one of the members above I'm going to take his recommendation on the Metalcloak 2.5 kit. I just need to see if its more useful for me to get the cheap kit without shocks and go with a nice set of Kings or something, go with the Fox they offer, or the OME in their regular kit.

There's a guy named Ed Newman on the Long Island Wrangler group who runs a really nice Dune Rubi X with the MC 2.5". Figured I'd mention it since he's local.

Check out the for sale section. A guy is selling his MC 2.5" for 800 I think. All you would need is shocks and you would still cone out ahead

Messaged the guy selling but it's really only $150 savings so I'm not crazy thrilled or anything.


I'll try and find that guy on LIW, thanks buddy

The guy sent me the link of the actual lift and components he has. It's a $1200 lift that he has not to include shipping. So really it's nearly a savings of $400. Maybe $350. That's cost is shocks right there and you still come out to total price of the original lift. Just trying to help. Not sure if warranty is transferable though so that's something to consider.

Then its not the lift I thought it was. Could be worth it. Thanks for the heads up
