Ok so I just got most of an RE 3.5" lift kit for $200 and I got the front coils, LCA's, rear leaf packs, and all four shocks. So I was just wondering what else I need (sway bar stuff or whatever) before I can install it. Thanks

Sway bar links, brake lines(maybe not front, most likely rear), adjustable track bar, new bolts everywhere, u bolts, maybe an SYE(every jeep is different).

If it's a DD I recommend a 3" lift and 31s. Out of those 3 companies go with Zone.

Alright guys, first time attempting to lift a Jeep.
Of these three kits, which one do you recommend.

I like that all of the above have not OEM lower control arms and even though it's pricey, I do like the first kit given it comes with a full set of leafs rather than an add-a-leaf (seams easier for installation purposes).

Rusty's trackbars have a very long history of snapping without warning on the highway. He's always blamed his source for TREs, but I don't know that he's ever changed sources.
Plus he was a dick when I called, so I won't buy anything from him.

Get full leaf packs. If youre going over 3", get a 3" pack and an extended shackle.
