Well I just bought the first mod for my 2dr JK. I bought the Full Traction 3" Ultimate Suspension Lift from Northridge 4x4. They just called me to let me know that they dont have it in stock but they'll be getting it and shipping it out to me next week. Now its time to buy wheels and some 35's! I'll post pictures as soon as I get everything together!

 

What does the "ultimate kit" include. Uppers and lowers?? Track bars?? What is the MSRP of that kit?

"System comes complete with 8 adjustable upper & lower control arms for both front and rear, heavy duty adjustable front & rear track bars, new generation front sway bar disconnects, rear links, bump stops, off-set brakeline relocation brackets, and ride frequency tuned coil springs for a comfortable ride."

they have it for $1689.95 at Northridge4x4.com

 

I picked it up along with Full Traction M Force Gas monotube shocks for a total of just over 2000

 

Can someone explain the me the advantages of the control arms? For $1700 you get the ultimate suspension, but for $500 you get a 3" lift without the control arms. What are the ups and downs to justify that cost? I live in Virginia, so Heavy Duty Rockcrawling is not very important to me. I'm more interested in Mud, Sand, and the occasional trip up to Paragon.

 

:( i just saw on their site that they wont be shipping until the end of Oct. oh well, it'll give me time to get some good meats and wheels

 

Mostly increased flex. More heavy duty control arms are always a plus, when you put a lift on a Jeep you don't want parts breaking, everything should be more heavy-duty than stock. Just think about what the control arms are used for...

 

So what happens to the factory warranty if I install a lift... considering the purchase of 4D JK Rubicon.
