Default Rustys 3.25"??

Hey guys, does anyone run this lift? If so tell me about it. I'm looking for a 3-4" lift, nothing crazy but I want the best bang for my buck. Going to be switching shocks to fox and adding LCA'd if the lift doesn't come with them. Rustys seems to have a lot in there kit for the price. People say it will sag more than other lifts and that's about all I can find about the jk lifts. Any help is appreciated thanks

I ran this lift for 7 years. Great lift. No issues with it.

I ran this lift on my previous 07 for a few years with no problems. It is a good lift for the money, and you can get it with adjustable control arms. I did put a spacer up front to level it from the bumper and winch, but sagging was minimal. The included adjustable front and rear track bars are nice too. For the price point, it's hard to beat imo.

There is no way you are going to run this kit with 37" duratrac's.

Front driveshaft, longer bumpstops, gusset the axle c's at a bare minimum. You will probably need a regear as well..

From everything I was reading guys can run 37s with a 2-2.5" with flat fenders. I could get 1" coil spacers to make sure but how far off could it be?

Lol, you will have plenty of lift. Goodyear doesn't make a 37" Duratrac. You just need to pick out a different tire.
