how big of a lift/tires are you planning on? RE is an excellent idea as everyone said, but if you were planning on going bigger there are a few other things to consider. was your plan to run 31's?

I would avoid them, procomp designs their product for full size show trucks not small off-roading jeeps. Stick to one of the primary jeep brands for better quality.

I have the Super Ride... I really like it for what my Jeep is set up to do. I don't need the crazy articulation that alot of people want. I live in the midwest where we have lots of trees, some hills and tons and tons and tons of mud. We have very little rock, and most of that is crushed up and in a parking lot. So I didn't have need for a really soft, flexy lift. On my next project I will probably go with some thing with more flex, but that is somewhere down the road.....
