Default Old MAN EMU vs BDS

Hello All,

This week I will be installing a new lift . I Can't decide weather to get a 3'' BDS or a OLD MAN EMU . this is all pretty new to me so with your help I can get in the right direction . Please let me know what I should do
I didn't realize how nerve racking this would be . I have a 2007 2 door Sahara . my Jeep is a daily driver and I plan to go wheeling in the North East.

Thanks to all who reply.

OME hands down. May be the best riding spring lift. Much better than stock and preforms well off road. Check out the OME Long Travel lift from Northridge4x4.

OME. But if you can swing it look at the AEV. I recently rode in a Jeep with the AEV lift an was amazed. Get the std kit and then add the High Steer as money permits. You will not regret it.
