What size tires will fit? 33's??? Anyone have pics of such a beast?

Kyle

33's will fit with minimal trimming. Although I would highly suggest going with a RE kit due to the fact that they are significantly more complete then the RC kits.

rc sucks. rubicon express will be much more expensive but will be very nice, especially if you get good shocks w/ it

They don't neccessarily suck. It's just not as high quality as RE, OME, etc. They do hold up though. There are thousands of xj owners who are satisified with their RC lift kits. The main downside is the shocks aren't top of the line. Switch em for a higher quality shock and you got a nice riding kit. You can't beat RC's customer service either, it's great. If you got the $$, get RE or other higher end kits, if $$ tight, RC will do you just fine.

I would'nt bad mouth Rough Country, they are trying to fix things from there past. There a good economy kit, and like was stated awesome customer service.

i'd roll rough country before i roll that overrated, overpriced, grey crap.

Kyle

Well its pretty apparent to me that you don't have any personal experience with the overpriced overrated crap that you speak of.

i wheel with RE equiped jeeps all the time. their products are nothing special. RE fans just like to bash other companys. just giving it back

OiRadio47

back to topic.

the rough country 4.5 is a nice kit. just get full leaf packs

BigVaz

Yeah, i dont have the money to drop on a RE kit. I've read some pretty decent reviews about RC and this is gonne be about 95% DD on road use, w/ very little off-road...

Kyle

Fair enough, but I would say that there is a lot of valid reasons to wheel the RE kits. Their completeness, joints, durability, etc. These are just a few good reasons to wheel their kits. If you price a RE 3.5" kit out vs a Rustys 3" kit and add up all of the extras RE gives you with their kit you would find that the Rustys kit is actually more expensive.

If you don't have the money for a RE kit then RC would be my next best choice.

OiRadio47

how much more is the RE 4.5" kit to the RC 4.5" kit? what else comes with the RE kit that the RC kit doesn't provide?

Kyle

Off the top of my head, quick disconnects, Adj Tracbar, UCA's, and Front and rear Stainless Braided Brakelines.

Do the brake lines need to be replaced?
