Default Rough Country Suspension

I'm looking at the 3.5" and the 4" kits. Little better shocks on the 4". I've heard good things about both. Anybody using either? Opinions? I need the help. Thank you so much

I've heard good things , it's a pretty complete lift kit for a reasonable price....

I have a mix of the rough country 3.5 inch kit and a BDS kit and they were both super easy to install.

I have RC's 4" X-Flex kit. I love it. I even bought their dual stabilizer. The ONLY thing I can make a complaint about were the shocks. They were good but not great. I ended up throwing on kings but the suspension is of good quality, fully adjustable and has held up to a beating Off-road. The 4" in my case has settled down some. Approximately 1/2" give or take. I used to scrap my work's parking garage's roof and now after a few years It doesn't.

I'm rocking the RC 4" lift. I've got nothing but good things to say about RC. Parts have a lifetime
warranty too. The only headache I ran into was the rear shocks. The pin on the top of the shock on the left rear side broke after about a week. RC sent me another pin for free. But recommended the rear bar pin eliminations. After I put those on, no problems. So if you order your lift, I would
recommend picking up those too. Good luck. Let us know what you decide!

Looking good! How 'complete' is the Series ll? Did you have to add anything else or was it all in the box? Also, axles are both centered properly after the lift?

Thanks.

Absolutely ! I LOVE all the deals available here through site sponsors! SO much better than when I had a Ford Explorer. No parts to begin with and what's a sponsor kind of deal.

I'm soooo happy to be back in a Jeep!
