I had the standard 4"(no control arms) on my last Jeep and was pleased with it. It rode decent, flexed good and was cheap. I had planned on getting the control arms but ended up trading for a newer Rubi with a Rock Krawler lift.

Yea, u should get driveshaft for the front and rear. You can milk it, and just wait for them to die, that's want I'm doing. I have about 300 miles on my RC 4" lift, nothing wrong yet.
