I have had this lift for about 8 months now and have no complaints. I'm running flat fenders and 37s. No DS problems yet. The steering did feel a little flighty, but cured it with a dual steering stabilizer kit. Welded the dropped front track-bar bracket as well. I have the RS9000s on the lowest setting and am happy with the ride overall. I have some very heavy components and no noticeable sag.

Did you just mail the rebate form and the sales receipt or did you have to include the box bar codes and stuff. I am just curious because i can mail it today if i only need the sales slip and the rebate form? Thanks.

Thank looks real good. I was worried about the front sagging from the weight of the aftermarket bumper and winch.

Well you can't get much heavier than the bumper winch combo I have and the front is still holding up. As for the rebate, I just followed the instructions. I think it did require pulling the UPC codes from the boxes and sending them with the form. Can't beat the price for a 4" lift with brackets for correction the suspension geometry. And, thanks for the compliments.

What control arms did you get. I just have the kit from rancho with 9000 plus myride. Steering is better than stock but not as good as id like

Just stock control arms on mine. Plan on replacing them in the future, but no immediate plans. Everything is holding up fine as is.

Yeah i will have the same, maybe sometime down the road but for as much trail stuff as this jeep will see the basic sport kit with the brackets will be just fine for a while.
