I just installed this kit on my 4 door, i have terrible mechanical skills and when watching the mech. install it i was like wow i should have put this on at home by myself. super easy, good instructions. my stock tires look like go go gaget arms now. (skinnnny) in super need of 37's and fender mod.

Rockrawler lifts ride so nice on and offroad. Go with Bilstein shocks if you like them, they are great all around shock,
Oh and don't forget spring retainers these lifts flex like crazy, you could easily loose a spring on full flex..

This kit kicks Jeep A$$!!! Off road it is slightly rough, but I have no extra weight on the 2dr manual (lightest JK out there) yet.
Mine rides great.
Congrats.
You have any pics of yours?

The lift was rather easy to install at home. It took me a few days but that was not working on it straight through.
Here are some shots right out of the shoot. I do not have any bump stops installed, for now I am using the factory bumper as a bump stop
Once I get my LoD's and winch installed I will let it settle then re-check to determine what I need for b/stops.
The 3.5 kit lifted me 4.25" and like I said, I do not yet have any other weight.
