Default I think I've made my choice, but have a question or two ??

It looks like I'm going with the Rubicon Express 3.5 Super Flex system..Based on what you see pictured, what else besides shocks am I going to need ??

Good choice or poor choice ??

I have the kit and love it. Some people like to replace the rear trackbar. It's not a must because Rubicon Express supplies a drop bracket with the kit. But the kit is pretty complete and is really all you need. Shop around some vendors though, some of them offer the kit for the same price with shocks included.

If you have a 2 door, you will probably need atleast a front driveshaft. With a 4 door you can get away with the stockers, but better shafts are always a good idea. Along with gears, and bigger tires but they are not a must.

I have it, recommend it. redrock4x4 had a sale, free bilstein monotubes w/ online purchase and free shipping. I have a full traction adj rear track bar. Depending on the off roading you do, a front drave shaft up grade will be needed. Scraped mine up first time out. Good luck and pm if you have any more questions.

Thanks, I forgot about drive shafts !! This kit is a little more than I first planned on spending but looks pretty complete like you said...

Tax refund gone !!!
