If you go to the rebate form... it lists the part numbers, and yes the sport kit is listed. There is a second sport kit if you have the eletronic sway-bar disco... it is a little more. It lists all three kits and depending on the shocks it gives you the 400 or 500 discount. So this lift should be able to be purchased for 650 bucks (about) with the 9000 shocks after the rebate and 530 with the 5000 series shocks. Now if you look around for sites doing free shipping, you will have a great deal.

is it a true rebate or do you have to spend it on Rancho products? Hard to see on my phone. Thanks.

Can anyone that installed the 4" sport lift on a 2 dr chime in on whether or not they had to upgrade drive shafts? Thanks.

Default I have a 2Dr

I have only had it on for 2k miles so far. Light wheeling, no issues with the drive shafts yet.

I have this exact lift on my Jeep and have been running it for over a year now. I think it rides better than stock and have had no issues with it. I do several trails with it and my wife has taken the Jeep over as a daily driver . She loves it.
I got right at 4" of lift from it and also installed 35's. I am still running the stock stabilizer and have had it up to 90mph on the highway several times. Stopped at 90, too fast for a lifted Jeep and only did that because I was passing.
I would recomend it to anyone.

That's good to hear! What 35's and wheels did you go with?

Just pulled the trigger on the Rancho 4" sport lift.

Will be less than $600 with the RS9000XL's and E-disco endlinks.

Should be able to stuff some 35's under there soon.

Nice! What dealer did you buy from? Installing yourself? Thanks.

Yea, I'm not sure I've figured out the linking rules around here... just heard the horror stories... anyway it was at one of those Four Wheel Parts type stores that has a location in West Palm Beach. No shipping but I did have to pay sales tax. I will install it myself and plan to take pics and do a write up.
