But rides nice and I've never had an issue with my kit. I would recommend picking up the upper control arms as well though. Customer service is killer. Call Zack.

HaHa zack is the man just talked to him cause the out of stock of the spring packs but yeah for 600 i can get everything i need so im prolly gunna end up going with them, thanks for all the tips

Werd! You wont regret it. You can build onto that kit too (or any kit for that matter). It'll bit ya in the ****. Then you'll end up with 5.5" of lift 35" tires. No more money but you'll be having fun with a grin from ear to ear.
I can speak for myself and maybe a few others on this. But alot of us started with a 3" kit. Then found ourselves at 4.5 to 6.5". I call it evolving.

Lol yup. It's starts out as a tiny cold and ends up as an all out disease! Pretty soon you have a trail rig on 35+ and a daily driver sittin on 33's. Most people can't keep cherokee's sittin stock for long

I'm running Rusty's 3" and love it. No issues, good price and quality, and 07negative is right, I'm already looking at going to 4.5"

For this statistic that I've made up. I'd bet that 80% of the dudes that went with a 3" kit wished they had went with 4.5" or larger. Personally, I'd just say skip 3" and go straight to 4.5". I like the lower gravity of 4.5" opposed to 6.5" but you can manage 33" tire with trimming and still get decent flex.
So many ways to skin a cat.
Someone with a 6.5" kit will tell you something different. But nothing wrong with that.

4 hours and some minutes before it had the lift kit ordered after i got it. Hope you like your lift. Went with 3.5" RE superflex and love it other then the AAL's. Also welcome to CF.

yes the 4.5inch is a better deal and people that went with 3inches most wish they went 4.5 BUT you have to get an sye with a 4.5 and thats another $250!
