Did rustys on mine and have had no issues. I was happy enough with them to buy 3.5 leaf packs and 3" coils for my sons. I would just get the leafs and coils and put a set of rubicon express nitrogen shocks on it. if you go that route you end up spending what you would spend on the kit with hydraulic shocks. They want an extra 150 for nitrogen shocks. Bringing the total to 580.00

Don't personally run any of their stuff but know a LOT of people who do. Rusty is a really nice guy and has come to several of our events and fund raisers and stands behind his products. His track bars with the tie rod ends aren't the greatest but at 3.5" you won't have any issues.

I started with thr Rusty's 3" kit . Went with the HD front spring rating too(180 lb rate). Never had a problem with any of there parts(sig line) or service. Also talk to Rusty himself on phine and in person. Very nice guy. Staff is too. Definately go with better shocks though. There's are the basic ones that Skyjacker also sells. Rough riding shocks are no fun. Spend the extra $$$ and get a quality set, like Bilsteins or Rubicon Express. I was actually waiting for there reservior shocks. They were supposed to be out around last Jan-Feb. Still not out.

If you are going to do any wheelimg with your jeep, definately get a new tie-rod, preferably from Rusty's. HD quality and strong as hell. Had mine for 3 years now. Bounced it off many rocks/boulders with no bends or problems.
