I'm looking to upgrade my Jeep this summer and can't decide on which lift to get... My budget is $2000 not including wheels or tires, I plan on running 35"s, mostly a highway daily driver and I plan on doing some good ole fashioned beach driving. Is Teraflex, Full Traction or Rubicon Express the way to go?

 

I don't know how to vote. I mean, they're all wonderful kits. For the money you're willing to spend on a complete lift kit -- on either of these three brands -- you're going to get your money's worth. What I would do is spend some $1400 or so on a short arm kit, and also invest in a new front driveshaft.

 

i'm bias but you should take a look at our new 3" premium plus kit. It's $1195.00(free shipping). its completely noise and maintenance free. We're using OEM syle bushings

the kit comes with Coils, upper control arms and adjustable trackbars.(shocks sold seperately) We tested this kit in moab and it performed great. It'll do just as well in the sand.

 

Remember once you go over 3" you need to start addressing pinion and caster issues, so add control arms into your budget.
