Sorry man never heard of them. Honestly I mostly just deal with 4 wheel parts(or 4wheelparts.com) since I have a local store. They match any advertised online price and I just come pick it up with no shipping charge.

Buuuut if I'm missing out on something there I definitely want to know.

Looks good and I would say good price for RE BUT, I purchased my 6.5" long arm Rough Country for $1330 shipped to my door and an additional $220 shipped with the IRO sye and refurb driveshaft coming to a total of $1550 shipped. The sye they give you on that kit is only good for the np231 transfer case. That kit also looks like it's a short arm with drop brackets and no crossmember, no tcase skid, and maybe no quick discos like I got?

Thats the exact kit I ordered a month ago. Its scheduled to be delivered tomorrow. They said RE had some of the parts back ordered and that's why it took so long. I added all the upgrades, bilstien 5100's, and the premium Tom woods (you'll find out more if you actually order). If you buy that kit you will also need to order a drop pit man. All in all with everything said and done I think i'm a bout 2400$ into that lift kit.

I researched for 2 months here and on jeepforum before making a purchase and dont make the same mistake I did. You will drive yourself NUTS trying to find the perfect lift. Just find one and order it. I know 2 guys who run RE and its great stuff. Their stuff is a much higher quality then your Rough Country or Rusty's, but that stuff will work just fine.

For what its worth that SYE and driveshaft goes for 500+$ if you order it from tom woods, and the bilstiens go for about 80$ a corner and are one of the best shocks you can buy. This is a premium kit with premium parts, its not cheap but you get what you pay for. I was going to just go with the IRO H&T and a refurbished drive shaft but all my friends persuaded me to go this route.

I happen to know Jason and wheel with him a few times a year when he goes out. He current;y has a new JK on 37's.
I would recommend 4x4groupbuy to anyone. We (ME4X4.org) had an open house at his place last year and are planning another event this spring. Our annual Spring Fling.

Jason gave us a ton of gifts for door prizes, which was very cool.

Anyway, good guy, definitely a good place to buy.

I just received my lift The RE 6200 (same one in your link). I have to say I am extremely extremely disappointed. Open up the box and right off the bat I only have 1 leaf spring, WTF! After verifying everything was there (or not in my case) I have found out they sent me the wrong disconnects (for a 2-3.5 lift) I'm back ordered on 3 parts (one of which I have no clue what it is, and I dont have the drop bracket braces. Time to make some phone calls.

I called 4x4 group buy and jake is on the phone with rubicon as I text this. I think this whole snafu is on re but still. How does someone only throw one leaf spring in the top of the box and seal it up? Missing my shackles, the drop bracket braces, a leaf spring, and got the wrong disconnects.

Placed my order on 2/18 and over a month later I receive the wrong thing.

Just wanted to update on my experience with 4x4groupbuy.com

As you can read above I placed my order on the 18th of February, and didn't get the last of my parts until just last week. Every time I have called 4x4groupbuy Jake has got right on my problem has solved everything quickly while keeping me updated. When I purchased my lift through them I thought i was buying it directly from them but it seems as if Rubicon Express is who shipped them out as my package shipped from Procomp (who now owns RE) from California and not 4x4groupbuy. All my problems appear to be because of Rubicon Express. Now that i have received everything and got a chance to look everything over im very impressed with the quality and beefyness of all the components. Yes I wish i would have got it sooner, and I still can't believe it shipped from RE with only a single leaf spring but its here and all together finally.

I have my 35" KM2's sitting next to all my RE Boxes and will finally be able to start putting it all together in the next couple weeks. Can't wait.
