Thanks everyone for the input. Right now I'm looking at a rough country.. I'll also keep my eyes open though at the junk yards, forums, and craigslist. Thanks again

I had the RC 4.5" AAL lift, I paid $450 for it and it worked well. Check out my album, I haves pics of it.

Check into Black Diamond (owned by Superlift) decent kit that comes with new LCA's, they also make a pretty good adj. tracbar. I have had it for 3 years now. BDS is an awesome kit, but a bit more pricey.

From personal experience I would go with a 4.5" lift. I originally had a 3" lift and then after about a month I started making plans for going bigger, if you want to run it off road. It's a lot cheaper to go 4.5" the first time. I would recomend a rough country or Rusty's if money is a issue. They don't ride as nice as a Rubicon Express but at 1/3 the price I like them just fine. You can usually get them for around 500.

Steve, I've already checked out your pics they're pretty impressive lol. I'd probably go for the 4.5... if there wasn't a parent factor. I think my pops will try to limit it as much as he can lol

I would undoubtedly agree with you. I'd really like to go for the 4.5 if the parentals allow it. Thanks for the advice

Realistically once you correct all of the half-assed stuff RC has in their kits you are almost to the price of getting a RE lift to begin with,

If price if a concern for the OP, that 3" is going to be the logical limit. 3" is the split where a lift goes from moderate price to much more pricey to get everything done correctly.
