rubicon express lift
It's working great so far! Ride quality I would say is better than stock, seems my springs have settled a little more, leveling the front end down, and with running 30 psi in tires, down from the 42 from the place that mounted them. I'm extremely pleased with this set up so far. Now just itching to go play in Colorado or Moab!!
Hey all! Made an account years ago to learn and FINALLY got my jeep and here i am. I am planning to go with Rubicon express long arm 4.5 on toyo m/t 35s....about to pull the trigger but want to make sure i am making a good decision. 2014 JK Unlimited Oscar Mike.
Superflex, yea go for it keep us up dated....
I'd personally go with the 3.5 long arm with flats if you are running 35s. It will still give you the same look but address some of the steering and handling issues a higher lift can have. I ran the 4.5" super flex on my 2 door, the joints make a little noise but I was happy overall. I think you will be pleased.
Have 119000+ miles on my RE 4.5 LA. Just rebuilt all the control arms with help from the RE staff. RE shocks lasted about 88K now using Bilstien 5100. Not the same kit questioned In this thread, but the secret to life is knowing what your buying and what it will do. RE dosent make flex monster stuff but it's pretty solid for the $$$.
I'll add my $.02 here. I installed a RE 2.5" lift w/ shocks last year and like most say the ride will be stiffer. But the more I drove it offroad the more the shocks and springs brokenand now it rides great both on and off pavement. When I bought the lift it did not comre with the geo drop brackets, I add some AEVs later.
