I like my 4" lift . I am running 37" BFG KM2 and 513 gears.It rides great on the freeway at 70-80 ,I evan had it up to 100 MPH. It is also great in the bush or on the rocks .Lots of flex . 4" might sound small, but I think it is a good lift for a daily driver.

I have a Superlift 4' w 35' on 17' wheels, awsome wish I went with 37's no prob. It works great just don't cheap out on shocks. Get some with xtreme travel. Not the cheapos they come with. The eyeball on this ride is so cooooool.

When you go with the bigger wheels regear with 5.13 the 4.88 still dogs on the freeway. They are better but needs more. Gonna look at the Hypertech programer.


Rubicon Rescue Green 4’ lift. 35x12.50 On Moto Metal 17’s, Custom tuned Edelbrock Xtreme travel shocks, Edelbrock Stainless Steel braided brake lines, Warn Bumpers and Dual HP powerplant winch, Warn diff covers, AEM intake, Magnaflow cat back ss, High clearence nerf bars, Aux lights, Superior 4.88, Stauns, Chrome kit, CB, Fire extinguisher, fire stick, Lets Wheel
