i was wondering if someone could list lift kits that are 5 inches or less and the cheapest they can find. ive looked around but havnt found much

 

I wont. because you shouldnt be buying the cheapest kit. You should be buying the good kit.

Look into Rubicon Express and BDS

 

Rough Country and Rusty's will be your best bet.

 

ive looked at RC.. how bout i refrase this.. whats the best kit for under 400$?

 

At 5"? You wont find one. From any company.

Best kit any size for under $400. Rubicon Express.

 

as in 5 inches or LESS. rc 4.5 is like 450$.. but i can get it cheaper than that threw a local shop in town. i can get it for thier cost which that normally means somewhere from 35-15% off from the other stuff ive bought

 

Zone lift might work it's $500 but it has everything you need!
The 3 inch lift is like $290

im lookn at the 3 inch prolly get that bc i have 31 inch swampers and i think itl look good with that

 

Plus for like $20 more you can upgrade to gas shocks, I love those things

 

Gas shocks are terrible. Hydro shocks are at their best right now, gas still needs improvement.

 

Just curious, how so? Iv had mine for like 6 months and haven't had problems yet.........

 

Ever since gas shocks have become major production, Monroe has been testing and improving. Gas shocks leak easier, I can bang the crap out of my bds5500 hydros. I have had multiple nitros and nothing but leaks even with the smallest dent the gas leaks passed the urethane orings.

 

Got ya so mainly just a leaking problem. My buddy has those bds shocks and they look sweet.
Sorry didn't mean to go off topic........

 

I notice that these kits don't come with a case drop kit. You will need one of those. Well, most people end up needing it after going 3" or larger.

Just a heads up.

 

accually the "cheap" lifts are more expensive than the quality more expensive lifts because you are gonna end up replacing everything any ways. save up buy a quality lift. i hate it when ppl just lift it cheaply and then complain that everything breaks... duh u spent 300 bucks on a 8 inch lift, what do u expect. plain and simple you get what u pay for. cheap cost= cheap lift.
