Rough Country or Rubicon Express 3" lift kit has better ride?
The suspension needs replacing for for a bit more I can lift the CHerokee with a full leaf springs kit. Right now the ride sucks in. Seems like everything is stock. Maybe shocks were replaced.
Which 3" lift kit would have better ride, Rough Country or Rubicon Express Super Ride kit?
Or is it shocks which make the quality of the ride?
Maybe someone who had both can give some feedback. I might go wheeling sometime with my Jeep, but not often.

The Rubicon lift
With full leaf pack
Will give u the best ride. Sounds like its your dd.
And you dont beat the snot out of it.
Deffently go re you will be glad. Rc tends to ride rough.
That re kit will feel nice on road.

I've heard decent things about RC, but never had a lift of theirs. I'm using the RE 3.5 superride, it's a bit stiffer than stock suspension but then with the larger tires it now feels smoother.

I have a 6.5" RC lift and its not bad, when I first put it on it was stiff but after a couple of days driving around and some wheeling it softened up,...now it has a soft ride.

It was a slightly rhetorical question. I would have to say that the Rubicon express (Cadillac) would probably be better then the rough country (kia)

I got a re on their bypasses and its soft as can be. But I got the aal and put mj shackle in the rear to let it settle and its awesome. I put rusty's coils on and they ride even better. Rusty's are good too and fairly cheap too.
