I have a 2000 Cherokee and I live in Hawaii(Military) I wheel pretty much every weekend and a few time during the week. Now the stuff here isnt too extreme but there are some good places to get in some good flex time. Basically the stuff here isnt too extreme like in the states where there is rock and all that other stuff. I plan on later turning it into a toy pretty much but as of now I drive it on the road every day to work. I am just torn between getting a regular 6.5 or the long arm 6.5 I really dont know. Just looking for some input.

In my opinion, if you've got the money for it, there's no reason to NOT get a long-arm kit.

Anyone know anything about the 5in OME kits?

I'm running the OME 2" kit with JKS control arms and trac bar.

If you are going to play hard with it later you should definitely future proof it with long arms!

Long arms will improve the ride greatly at 5+ lift (from what I have read/heard). like the others said - if you can afford it and have the skills/tools to install it - do it.

Tharry, I will be transfering there in november, whats the best way to ship a long arm setup to hawaii? Ive been quoted $475 shipping at the cheapest. Is there a cheaper local option for lifts? Im contemplating buying a kit before I even have the vehicle and putting it into my packout. any advice is welcome.

I've been looking at that kit with full leaf packs. Two questions: is the ride on the street comprised and can you run 31s with no cutting? This Jeep goes seventy miles a day.
