Default unlimited rubicon, 36'' swamper bias, 5'' fabtech, what do you think?

hi everybody, i'm just about to put a fabtech 5'' suspension under my truck and i want to know if somebody have one under a jeep like mine. it is the best of the two, i dont remember the name.... the point is i've bought a set of tsl swamper tire that was already new on a set of mickey thompson classic lock 16''. i ride them before and i really know what i have to ride so my point is not their. i want to know how was the ride with the suspension and if somebody have good pictures of an unlimited like mine with 5'' suspension and 36'' tires i really want to see what my jeep will look like! i have bought a rough country at the fall from one of my friend (the kit have 1 week's old!) but every jeeps specialist tell me that rough country was really cheap and easy to broke and at the price i can buy my used fabtech, it will cost me about the same if i buy the ajustable front arms to fix the joint angle.... so i need pictures and comment of a fabtech 5''. thanks to you

I have the Fabtech 5" long arm kit with the Dirt Logic shocks (non-coil over). Love the kit. Only one real trip doing any slow stuff with it but worked like a dream, handles the highspeed stuff like you wouldn't believe and has a great ride around town. My JK is on 37" MT Baja MTZ's and I now have the Xenon flat flares (<-- kinda makes me want 40's). Kit went on fairly easy considering how much it is and it was my first ever suspension.

ID:	145266 So there is a pic of when I still had the factory flare's on it too. If you want to know anything else just give me a holler and I'll do my best. Its kinda nice to see more people running same suspension as me...now I dont feel as left out. Hahahahahahahaha
