Ordering lift in about an hour need some help
Okay,
I am about to order either the TERAFLEX 3" or the FULL TRACTION 3", I'll tell you guys that I have the 2x4 Sahara Unlimited that's my daily driver (and wife's). We do drive significantly on the highway and go camping, fishing, etc..., So, my questions to everyone is which lift has minimum sagging over time, have the best possible ride quality, and will be less troublesome in the future? Also, I noticed the FULL TRACTION premium lift comes with lower control arms, how necassery are controls arms for a guy who really doesn't climb stuff or go in the mud? Anyways guys, any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

if it is a daily driver and you are not wheeling, why lift it at all? i would just go w/ some spacers. I do allot of highway and am trying to decide as well, thinking right now at 3/4" spacers and 33"s as daily driver and allot of highway. so many decisions...

I want to get at least 3" to run some 35's and have it look clean, without having the tires fill up the wheel well. You ever heard of folks having alignment problems or ESP issues with the economy lift?

no, i have not heard of any issues with allignment or ESP with an econo lift. I had spacers in my old XJ as i did allot of highway and did not want to go to a 3" and kill my gas mileage, no issues at all.
i would go with a 3" and 35"'s as well but since daily driver and i drive allot of highway this is too much in my opinion, definaltey looks sweet though! if you don't care about gas mileage and your wife does not mind the climb, this is the way to go.

Instead of getting a lift, because you have a 2x4, and you are not doing any 4x4ing(Obviously lol)
Just trim the Air dam and put some 33" tires on it.
Since its your Daily Driver, Screw getting a lift at all, because you will sacrifice Fuel Economy and performance for no relative reason, except for looks...

Last question, should/would I really need the 3" premium suspension or the 3" econo lift, given I do have the unlimited 2x4 and pretty much will be driving on the highway? What do the new control arms allow you to acheive?
