Hey guys!
So I currently have the 2.5 inch ma travel rock krawler lift kit. I am on 35s at the moment. When wheeling I'm always getting hung up on the belly cause I am a 4 door :P! I'm thinking of either the 3.5 or 5.5 coilover long arm kit. I want 37/38 inch tires. Which kit do you guys suggest?

True if it's higher. The long arms are longer and reduce the angle; therefore the lift needs to be higher along the obstacles. The short arms are "steeper" angled per se and less chance to hit a rock than a long arm at same height. Long arms are much better overall for ride quality and travel.
