My rough country 3 inch lift I have is well priced and has great quality. Get the full leaf pack though, the AAL (which i have...) makes for a real uncomfortable drive.

The aal subtracts from ride quality a little bit, but it rides better than stock.

nothing rides better than a full rubicon express lift. Its all about the shock though. I found that a 3000 series works the best. Find a shock that is equal to your weight.

Yeah, the full leaf pack is a more expensive option, but defintiely worth the trouble.
