lol, sounds like I'll have to break out the video camera tonight. It's obviously got more body roll than a corvette, but I'd say it's hardly any more that stock. Less body roll than stock on crappy springs.

Here's an example of what a 4.5" with 31's looks like for ya, really pretty pleasant as a daily driver and still does awesome in the trails.

BB is the way to go. started with spacers/shackes 2 yrs ago and now still able to use them with a bastard pack and coils for 4-5".
you will need a track bar though even with 2" lift

I have a rustys 3 inch spring lift like you have in your original post. I bought this on my 19th birthday and have had on 2 jeeps with no problems at all. Granted i changed out all the bushings every so often but i like to do alittle upkeep more than most.
rustys 3.5 full spring kit with spacers up front. I ordered the adjustable trac bar/hd mount and lower control arms and havent had a single problem myself

JKS adjustable track bar.
It keeps your axle centered under the Jeep. When you lift your Jeep, the geometry of the track bar changes and it will pull the axle to one side.

Rusty's lifts are not bad what so ever. Yes they use OEM bushing. So what. They'll last ya 50-75K miles and you replace em. Big deal. I've been running their 4.5" kit. using their steering conversion and adj track bar. Without a doubt they have the best customer service I've ever experienced. Zack is killer. Just b/c one knuckle head has an issue doesn't mean their products suck. R.E is decent stuff too, but they out source damn near everything. They only assemble. I called and asked.
BDS is decent but their long arm kit blows. T&T Customers (formally known as Trek) has what I think to be one of the best lifts.
I've had no issues what so ever. I've also done the work correctly too.
Can't stand it when ppl talk crap about a product or company just b/c of some dismal crap that could have very well been operator error.
