And will the super-ride still have a good flex?

Since I'm on the rocks when I wheel I prefer more flex, so I'd suggest the SuperFlex kit.

It all depends on your plans for it. If the jeep is going to be primarily road driven I'd stick with the super ride. If your looking more off road, or don't mind a rougher ride go with the super flex

I agree, if you are going to ever disconnect the sway bars even once. The superflex kit is forsure worth it. Its a great kit, have it on my rig currently.

Do yourself a favor, put a kit together from quality parts, which means no RC at all and as little RE as possible (springs and coils). There is so much choice out there.. Take a look at IRO, OME, Terraflex, etc.
