So on my last jeep i have a 4.5in RC short arm kit and had a great time with it but i want to upgrade to something a little more intense for my new jeep....Right now i have a small 4inch lift on my 98 i just bought but i plan on changing the whole entire suspension on it but i dont know where to start off and with which brand?

The Kits that i am considering

XJ 5.5 LONG ARM KIT by Serious off road

6.5" Long Arm Lift Kit with Performance 2.2 shocks - Rough Country

XJ 6.5" Critical Path Long Arm Lift Kit

Also as far as SYE, i still need to find out some more information on that since i have a 242 transfercase.....

Also one more thing to have in mind, what ever lift kit i end up going with i might end up buying two since i am also looking for a Xj for my buddy that i am going to help him build so might as well get both at once

Trust me i had comparing companies because everyone puts different type of quality in theyre product but in this economy i try to save as much as i can......

please let me know what you guys think....and girls


Side not, will end up doing a 4 link rear end eventually haha

 

Just order through RC and get their 10% off. Just say your from the forum

 

yeah, thats the deal i got for my last lift kit to

 

Ironrock if you plan on linking the rear. Their kit comes with almost everything you need.

 

Look at some higher quality lifts before you settle for these. Nothing wrong with them, but there are better quality/ riding suspension systems out there.

 

Any suggestions?

 

if your playing on going 4link in the rear id go with either rock crawler or iron rock for they both make a 4link kit. if you worried about money and esp if your buying 2 kits at once go RC and save 10% on 2 kits your looking to save a few hundred

 

Here in about a month I am going to get the rc 6.5" long ARM and sell my 3" rc lift.

 

The serious offroad kit is actually a rubicon express kit. I have their super flex 4.5" short arm full leaves kit and can say the quality is top notch. I've had this system for nearly seven years with absolutely no problems with any of their parts. All of those kits seem pretty complete, and i have heard good about the rc 6.5" long-arm. The R.E. Kit is more expensive but i love how it has that big built-in skid plate. I personally wouldn't go with the iron rock kit, not very well known. I don't have any experience with them nor have i heard much, but thats my point.

 

He's probably going to say Rock Krawler.
