Default Rock Krawler Pro 2.5 kit

Hey folks

Is anyone running the new Rock Krawler 2.5 pro kit. For the same price I can go with the 2.5 pro kit or go with the 3.5 Xfactor RK kit. The pro kit is nearly 100lbs lighter but the 3.5 x factor has the better articulation and adjustability. What do you think?

ENJOY
STEP

Sir

If you have any technical questions on the Pro Kit, just let us know. Since July we have sold 42 of these 2.5" Pro Kits. That is a descent amount concidering the cost for of the kit and the lift height!

Our recomendation, if you only want to go as tall as a 35" tire, then the 2.5 will be great! But, if you want to eventually run 37's, then the 3.5" system will be the way to go. Try to think ahead a bit so you are not spending money twice!

I hear you AMEN!! But could you do some flat fenders and run 37 inch tires? But thinking about that for a second. YOu do not have as much room to articulate so might not be the best set up. Am I on the right track.

What size tire do you want to run and what do you think about your future! If you are an off-road enthusiast with a 4 door JK, we would be willing to be that it will end up on 37's before you are done with it! Just give us a call. We will be more than happy to talk shop with you!

I plan on doing the X-Factor Pro 3.5" system so that I can run 37's. I called them up and they were nothing but helpful. I'm just waiting for my jeep to get here, so I know how much money I have left after my down payment

Here is a pic of the 2.5" stock mod kit with flat flares. I can stuff 37's if bend the pinch seam in the rear.
