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.

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.

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.
