I don't think you could go wrong with that lift Recon, it does include all the driveline parts. And for a few bucks more, you can upgrade to adjustable control arms all the way around. Plus, I bet you could squeeze 37's in there.

Makes you wonder about the quality though at that price.

I have it under serious consideration.

My buddy in Colorado had this setup in his '06 Rubicon. I helped him install part of it and it was a fairly straightforward install. Extremely solid hardware and adds a level of "security" during hairy situations on the trail...of course he did wheel like a banshee and needed the extra protection.
My only complaint: it borders on starting to become claustraphobic once you add the pads to the tubes. You truly are surrounded by steel.

Peterson 4Wheel and Offroad magazine did a complete write-up of that whole kit (from install to trail use). I'll try to search for the article.

In some of our testing areas we've actually used the control arms as sliders, although it's not the recommended use for these.

I am one of the owners of the company. If you purchase this item from Quadratec (their pricing is really low!!!), I'll offer you a money back guarantee. If you don't like the kit, send it back to Performance Automotive Group (www.p-a-g.net), I'll pay the freight of course, and refund your purchase price.

Once you get this kit in your hands, you'll see the quality so I'm not too concerned about you returning the product. With regard to why pricing is so aggressive through Quadratec. We've spent a lot of time and money making certain that this kit is among the best available. Quadratec is one of our best distributors for some of our other products (OR-Fab and Performance Accessories) and they know the effort we put into designing our products. I believe/hope they are doing this to help us with marketing a great product.

PM me if you want to take me up on this offer.

Yates

We have an invader on the Huntsville Thread!!!
Thanks Yates for the info, glad to see you're constantly upgrading an already good product (1 3/4 .250.....dang). I'll be sure to harass the guys still riding the fence on what lift to get.
