There is a vendor in the vendor section of the forum that offers zone products an I think he said their was an issue with full packs. Rough country is in that same section offering 10% off

So I just found out BFG KM2's are on backorder throughout the entire country and none are being shipped anytime soon. What are some comparable brands at 35x12.5x15 at around the same price $215 that I found

Anyone have any problems with 4WDs fixed lower control arms? Or comments about them? I really need some since I put the 5.5" lift on but I'm very broke right now. Any ideas? 4WDs are only 160 for apair.

Did they give you an estimate of how long they'll be on back order? I was looking at getting 33" one soon.

I'm fairly new to this whole game, and looking to learn more. Currently I have a 3" Rough Country lift on my Jeep but want to go higher and I'm thinking about buying spacers and shackles to lift it more. I know I'll need to drop the transfer case, but what other parts am I going to need? To add a twist, I'm on poor college student budget.

awesome thanks guys, I was thinking of going with the RE 5.5" lift with 33's but think I'm going down to the RE 3.5 and 31's to be safe, doing axle swaps here in SA is damn expensive.

Extended brake lines, longer shocks, probably an SYE (at 5" most people have to do it) new track bar, new swaybar discos there's more I'm forgetting...
