This is by far the most talked about topic on the forum most likely. Not only is there write up and opinions on most every major lift out there already. There is excellent sponsor support that you can contact directly about specific questions regarding the products. If you get real fancy you can even find full install walkthroughs for most as well.
Haha next week I bet you are going to ask what is the best 35inch tire for a daily driver with some off road ability that is not too expensive but is not cheap. Priobably also toss in where can I get a deal on 16 inch black wheels and what backspacing should I use.
Either way good luck on your project.

I was actually thinking the same as dognights but.....
Do yourself a favor and do more research for a month or two before pulling the trigger...
Don't buy the AEV lift, it's a rip imo...just some cheap ass brackets.
The Fox shocks may be good shocks but not worth the money...mostly just for show.
If you want a good solid kit, that you will be happy with in the long run, I always recommend Rock Krawler. However, I do not recommend the Pro Kits. Unless you REALLY need to save weight, it's a waste to spend a decent amount of money more just to have aluminum parts...Steel vs. Aluminum...I'll take steel any day, IT'S A JEEP!!
Take a look at the Rock Krawler Max Travel Systems with Bilstein 5100 shocks...It essentially replaces every part of your suspension and steering system with really heavy duty durable parts, not just some cheap ass brackets like AEV, plus RK has their Abuse Proof Lifetime Warranty on all hard parts.

The first question is why do you want it lifted? If your just looking to accommodate larger tires you can hang 35s with just a 2.5 in spacer kit..but if your going to be doing any flexing you'll still need to extend your break lines. If your not doing any serious crawling why waste your money on a fancy long arm kit unless you just want to look like the cool kids.. Lol
