I have intentions of lifing the thing but i am on a huge hold due to the things i have read on the bord about certain lifts. I am stuck on a 4" in 35" tires. The rough country is a no suprise good looking deal, but i have not read much good on the kit. So i ask the experts, if i buy that, what esle do i need to make it a road worthy jk. I want to stay way clear of the DW! So help me out here guys.

 

Check out Northridge4x4.com, They have a great selection of lifts and contact david. he is very helpful.

 

Start in the FAQ's...

Q: What size lift do I need to get in order to fit 35" Tires?
Q: What are all the components that I will need with a 3" lift?
Q: What are all the components that I will need with a 4" lift?

The same threads you read those comments in will also give you feedback on what else you might want to add. Or, you can look at the 'what components will I need' faq's. Or you can look at any 'complete' kit and compare it to the components in the RC kit.
Then add the costs of all the other components you want to the base cost of the lift, and then ask yourself if it's still a 'no suprise good looking deal'. (there are a lot of people that are happy with their RC lift. Do more research to find out if it is right for you...)


This is generally install error or tire balance, not because you chose RC over any other brand...

 

teraflex is on sale at Northridge-call david.

free shipping to boot!

my 2.5 spring lift is enroute to me now

 

Get it Dirty!! That's what you should do with it and worry about the lift later...

 

getting it dirty has been done already and it was a blast. i have owned a ton of toys including a few lifted trucks(mopar only!)but i just have never done the jeep thing. i have not left my computer since the buy reading up on kits and accs. i just want a budget lift like the RC kit. i read that track bar moves and u might need to purchase the adj. one. so thats what i am getting at with the ?. thanx for the replys and helping a new jeep owner!

 

go for the teraflex 2.5'' coil lift

 

Call me tommorow and i can help you out. Lots of good stuff to read on here and we do a ton of jeep work. When it comes to JK's alot things you can go with and between me and Dave we can hook you up.

Look forward to your call.

As stated above, and in the majority of the DW threads, it's not the trackbar. It's the way the trackbar is installed. If it isn't cranked down to 125ft/lbs, guess what. if it's loose and you keep driving, the mounting holes wallow out also. This has nothing to do with RC lifts, and everything to do with the person that installed it...

 

Most JK DW issues are related to the Track Bar bolt on the diff side most times.
