6.5" or 4.5" on DD? Company will probably be Clayton unless I'm short on funds. It will be long arm and I will run 33's on either lift. My question is which lift is better on a dd as in looks (would 6.5" be too big?) And ride quality. Xj will be used for moderate off roading. Thanks

What would be the best way to achieve a 5" lift? I was thinking a 3.5 Rubicon super ride and adding a 1.5" shackle and spacer. Or would a 4.5 lift kit be a better solution, say the RC X series one?
