I really liked the affordability of this lift. I will not break the bank and when you buy a 3 in lift kit that is what you get. The shocks leave a lot to be desired so if you have the bank roll buy an upgrade. As far as ride a lot of people say it is Rough, my thoughts are I drive a Jeep I want to feel the bumps so I think the ride is fine.

Everyone tends to ask about my Shackles they run about 100 bucks and are great for recovery you can get them here.

Shackle Mounts

Nice. What size tires are those?

you'll need to measure once it's lifted and all your components are on - it varies with each setup

whatever length (under full flex) prevents both

a) your shocks from bottoming out, or
b) your tires from hitting the fenders

If you just bought a 6.5 Rc lift, wheels and 35 tires, what else would you need to get so everything would work out alright?

Step 1: Get rid of RC lift. Step 2: downsize to a nice 4.5" LA kit. Step 3: Get a good steering set up like serious offroads. Step 4: wheel and enjoy
