I leak oil...do you have any side shots of your jeep. I would like to see some pics of the 5.5" lift. I doubt i will go up to 35" tires, probably stay at 33" not sure to get 4.5" or 5.5"?

Man, that kit is very complete. Really good way to go for a dd/wheeler, i bet the ride will be better than stock with those components.
The only thing i wonder about with that kit is the driveshaft length. Depending on which axle you have it will vary about an inch, ie d35 longer, 8.25 shorter. iirc might be backwards but they are an inch difference.
Other than that looks very solid! I have spent more than that on my components, wish i would have found a complete kit like this when i did mine.

JoshPXJ just sent me a link of a little video. He's got a set of Serious L/A's, Serious OTK Steering and a custom trackbar and frame side bracket I built for his rig.

Here is the link for that kit:
http://www.seriousoffroadproducts.co...-NP231J-T-case
I see what some say about the money as it is 600 dollars more, but i really dont want to end up going back and buying another kit later on if one was to fail on me. And yes it will be a dd, but believe me if i can find some mud or some crawling areas, i will hit them. I really want something that is going to drive smooth (reason for LA), and 4.5" is a perfect height for me. With that being said, it is best to get a sye and driveshaft to smooth out the wobble. So no matter what im spending a quite a bit of money. I just want quality and was hoping someone has ran this kit. Again it really looks like a great kit for the money and what you get with it. Thanks for all your input, this forum is great. So much information.
