Probably not the series 2. I dont even see my lift on thier website. This is what I got:

Sometimes i wish i got a 2 door instead of a 4 door, although my 4 door has really grown on me lately. I kinda wish i had gotten the PS BFH front bumper instead of my RC hybrid stinger, but it was so inexpensive in the long run its not that big a deal. besides it has taken its fair share of abuse on the trails and is no worst for it.

Ok. Not sure if true but my kit came with the n2.0 shocks. Some say they are better, I dunno cause I have not ridden on the older models. My kit also came with lower control arms and trackbar brackets, and a drop pitman arm. All those things probably make the kit a bit smoother. I'm sure there are better kits out there but I have been pretty satisfied with mine so far after a year and a half of use. Good luck getting your Jeep sorted out to your liking.

some people are happy with a stock sport for that matter . I see more stock ones on the road than modified here in the north . I liked the simplicity of my 2011 motor over the complex 3.6 in my 12 that's kinda a regret ! cant even change plugs in the 3.6 I think its stupid

If you are planning to run 35s and want to keep your jeep as much stock as possible, a rubicon is perfect. If you have a great budget and plan to run tires over 35'' a sahara or sport might make sens since you will need to replace your axles anyway. And also you will sit higher on 37+ so you wiould see some advantages going with a currie anti-rock swaybar system.

I broke alot of stock stuff on my jeep on 35s. Depends how you wheel, may be plenty for some. Also tire size isn't really the big cause of body roll where you need to look at an antirock...

I know, lift height play more with center of gravity and weight balance but usually the bigger the tires the higher the lift with stock fenders.
