Well I’ve been daily driving the Jeep over 600 miles a week here lately . I’m in love with her she runs great and does everything I want her to . I’ve got to get to installing this lift I’ve got a garage full of parts . I know it’s highly frowned upon on this particular forum but I decided to go rough country . I went with the 4.5 x series lift and I am extremely impressed with how quickly it arrived and the quality of the parts it’s very beefy . I took a chance based on some research and phone calls to people installing a lot of lifts in current time . If I have issues I’m confident they’ll warranty it. I won’t be doing any hardcore wheeling and there’s more rough country on the road than any other brand I’ve ever seen and the only place I hear complaints is online other than it rides rough comments . Anyways I’m happy with my purchase also got bump stops and IRO shackles .

I’ve been daily driving the Jeep for 10,000 miles now... way more than I should have but it’s been such a great vehicle . Easily one of the best purchases I’ve made on a cheap vehicle . However , today the notoriously crappy tires that came on it Goodyear wranglers decided that although they’re like new and only 2 years old one of them blew out full belt separation while sitting at work in the parking lot it’s now rocking a full size spare . Guess that’s the sign that I need to install the lift and wheels/tires ! Still want to buy a steering set up but cannot make up my mind !

I finally got her all done

Looks great!

thank you ! I’m very surprised at how well it drives/handles after the alignment. I need to upgrade the steering but right now it drives fine as is and everything’s tight. No driveline vibes either .

my poser shots yesterday went to drive by a place I hunt and ended up having to turn around decided to see if it would flex out on an incline and realized how desperately I need lockers quickly . This was a “joy ride” after replacing the alternator , water pump , upper and lower hoses , belt and thermostat housing gasket and water pump inlet tube .

Well ... I’ve mentioned that I would be honest with my reviews of my lift because I chose RC despite negative sayings on here and positive locally . The lift has been fine and I’ve had no issues until I noticed something this morning ... the seal on my RF shock is blown with less than 4 months and about 4,000 miles on it .
