Definately one of the best kits you can buy. I'd spring fir the RE monos if I was gonna go ahead and spend that kinda money. That's about the best place to buy from too.

It looks good with some 33" and stock flares or some trimming and 35s work well too.

RockKrawler & Rubicon Express are the 2 kits I've had the best luck with (installing, lack of issues, longevity).

I can spend a little bit of time going over the particulars & pricing, if you would like.


Just give me a shout back channel or send me an Instant Message (if you use the programs).
