Alright so I was looking through 4x4groupbuy's deals and everything when I saw that I could get a 6.5" RC lift for about 150 dollars more than the 4.5". This has probably been answered already but it would be more expensive to run/use a 6.5"?

I also would like to know what are the most popular lift sizes people get. I was looking through the lift/tire setup thread and it appears 4.5's are pretty popular but I saw some that were higher. Also some 3.5's and 2's.

If I got the 4.5" RC as I was originally planning to do, would I need a SYE or should I just wait and see if I have problems with the lift? I was also wondering if I added spacers/shacklers to make the lift possibly 5"-5.5 would this cause future problems as well?

And I guess does the 3.5" RE get as much clearance as the 4.5" RC? I've heard they're close, which is a little strange.

I know I've been asking a lot of questions recently, should be some of my last here. Thanks for all the help. Maybe..

 

First you wont know if you need a SYE until you have your jeep done. If it is a newer jeep you will more than likely need one.

Second a 3.5" lift and a 4.5" lift are an inch different. I dont know anyone running R.E. products but I imagine it will settle to the advertised hight.

Third you can put spacers in with the lift springs if you wanna get more hight. I am one of those people who believe low lift big travel is the way to go if your going after rocks ( not my thing).

But to each his own. Good luck with your choices.
