Alright, thanks so much for all of the information. This pretty much makes up my mind. Depending on what my 17 year old budget will allow, I'm looking for a 3.5" RE with leafs which I can get from 4x4group for $584. I'm trying to get them to substitute the DT's for Monotubes, hopefully they will. Thanks again.

Sounds like a good choice to me. You might have to pay a little more for the monotubes but the better ride might be worth it. Either way, the RE kit is a solid foundation to build on I'm sure you won't be dissapointed!

Yeah I'm still looking for a nice ride on road and still dependant off road. Is your rig driven every day? And I think that you recently cut the fenders off your jeep or trimmer, not sure which one. Is their a guide to do this myself, I've been searching and cannot find one. I heard it wasn't expensive either, just need a knife or something.

Also the white trim on the side of my sport is kinda annoying, would I do the same?

Here are 2 different write ups on trimming the fenders. One is from Jp magazine, the other is from Rock Lizard Fab.

Contact Jason at jeepinoutfitters.com and see how close to that price he can come. Also you will need an adjustable trackbar and maybe some 2* shims. You will also want a 3/4" poly spacer up front to level it out.

I did just recently trim my fenders... I looked at a few guides but decided the best way to go was just trim off what's needed specific to your vehicle, it's not too hard. I just flexed out my front and rear end to the point the tires were rubbing pretty good, then I noted where it needed to be cut off. I used masking type as a guide to cut a straight edge, then made my rough cuts with a coping saw. I smoothed out the edges with a sanding wheel on a dremel tool and then hand sanded with 200 grit paper to get the final finish. I didn't take any pictures while I was doing it but here you can compare before and after to see what I did. It's really easy.
