Craigslist Sale
 

So I found this here locally and need some info.

Anyone here have any experience with the RE 5.5 non long arm kit. The Jeep is a wreck but the lift, wheel, extras such as new carpet, new never installed SYE kit as well as RE 3.5 kit come with the package. I am going to install this on a 99 and would like to know what, if any, are the differences from this year model to a 99? Would this kit, once RE opens back up, be upgradable to the long arm kit? I know the kit pretty much drops the lower control arms as well. Now would this affect articulation?
Any info would greatly be appreciated.
Seems like a deal I can't pass up.

you can put a long arm kit from ANY manufacture on there... IT does not matter...

and on a side note... who cares if RE does not open back up... most of the people that had their stuff where RE snobs... lol

lol, no snob here, just looking for a good deal

poor thing need to be given a new home

Talked to the guy, I'm picking it up on Thursday. Just wanted some opinions.

I am just messing around.. :P

Oh really.....:bangin:

I am just messing around, they made (hopefully make) good stuff

5.5" with short arms is not gonna be the best of rides and the tires look shot. So basically your paying $1900 for a lift that was only $1500 brand new, and some rims. Not the best deal if you ask me. Just my 2 cents.

I guess im a snob for having an re lift.:sad:

I love my kit...suck they are out of business, for now, hopefully :sick:

And i think its not a bad deal...keep that pretty *** jeep you have in your avatar pretty and beat the crap outta this thing!:head:

I had the 4.5 in RE short arm lift. It rode good. I loved the life! Only complaint I had was the coils started to sag about a yr after the loft was put on. My pics show the flex.

I ran that kit for a good bit, still run parts of it, and it flexes quite well. Not quite as good as a long arm but drop brackets work pretty good.

good deal, looking forward to it. As far as the tires go, well I'm not concerned as I will be wrapping those wrangler wheels with some new KM2's.

Well I've got it for less than 1900, 1400 to be exact. But with new wheels, a new SYE kit in the box for the 231, a full size new spare. I can't go wrong.

Well that sounds like a better deal. Good luck with the install.
