There are some negative reviews about the RE quick disco's, but if it were me I would run them until they wear out or break and then get some JKS ones. As long as you keep it lubed, I think there wouldn't be many problems.

And as for you Kevin96, I think the Super-flex would be a better option considering you wheel. Disconnecting the sway bars is pretty much a must if you wheel at all.

For shocks, lots of guys run the Bilstein 5100's and are happy with them. I think SeriousOffroad has a pretty good deal on them.
If you want to get spendy, like I stupidly did, you can look at the OME Nitrocharger Sport shocks. Awesome shocks, probably even worth the money, but they are pricey. Also, Rubicon Express has monotube shocks that some CF users run, IIRC they are a rebranded Bilstein anyways, and if you can get a deal with the kit, those might be a good option.

so the superflex lift that is $706.99 is the lift i should get? part number RE6030C?

EvstaG

Well..... This is the one you should get http://claytonoffroad.com/product_in...roducts_id/330

But yes, I have heard positive things about that kit. Keep in mind, you might need a Slip Yoke Eliminator or transfer case drop, and you might need a new trackbar as well.

Here are some actual reviews:

You can get the leafs + coils for about $350 the piece together the stuff you want from other sources. Don't buy kits.

Can I get some clarification on why no one likes Rough Country? I personally know a couple guys who have their lifts and have had no issues. Is the ride quality better with more expensive lifts or what? I cant see any difference in the parts you get except that RC includes shox and RE doesn't. Im still up inthe air about my lift and really dont want to get junk but I dont like paying for just a name either. Thanks for your help again!

EvstaG

Quality of the part in every way increases when you pay more (generally). Longevity, durability, fitment, ride/handling, offroad capability. For many, the RC lift is good enough, while for some it will suffer to steeply in areas like ride or build quality. Some parts like control arms or brake lines will likely be similar in quality, but for things like leaf spring packs- definite differences. IMO, every company likes to think that their name is "the name" there isn't much paying for one brand over the other (in this case).

Sweet and short, you get what you pay for.

Parden my reference but im a gun nut, so what your saying is a Taurus will shoot but a Colt will hit what ur aiming at and not jam ?

Bingo

I have a 96 sport with no lift, If I get 1.5 inch spacers will 31's fit more comfortably or should I still go with 235's?

EvstaG

235's will be about perfect for a 1.5" budget boost. The keep the stock profile, but give a Jeep some stance. If you are planning on going bigger later, you can stuff some 31's in there, but the will likely rub control arms at lock, and fenders while flexing

I've got 235/75/r15's on my stock 94 xj and it drives fantastic with no lift.





On the other hand I just bought a 3" RC full leaf kit and now you've got me a little concerned when your talking about leaf spring pack quality.. Care to elaborate a little more? I'm not looking to do heavy duty wheeling mostly sand, snow and some medium trails but it is also my DD.

Hey what's this thing about some hardcore rigs running airbags and no springs with a "link" type suspension? How does that work?
