Default Need some input on a Long Arm kit

So I have a 3.5 rubicon express short arm lift and I'm looking to upgrade to a long arm. I'm going with coilovers and already have the shocks. So I also get deals on a rubicon express.

cant find much on their product. Anyone have a Rubicon Express long arm kit. Any input

Would rather not spend 2500 on a different brand if I don't have to.

I am not a fan of radius arms as I want more then 2 points holding the axle on. I have never seen anyone run their 4 link long arm. Their joints are not that great either. With bypass and coil overs I would want something better then what they offer.

It is also backed by a lifetime warranty 🤔

So what? The make thier crap in china and charge the end user 10x what it cost for them to build it and factor in some warrantee. You end up dealing with the cheap parts that wear out and have to send back or wait on parts to fix it. No thanks. There is a reason they went bankrupt.
