Im getting the 6.5 inch rough country longarm just wondering if there is any write ups or reviews on it?
Also Im getting 33x 12.50x15 inch pro comp ats. I was wondering what would be a better rim size 15x10 or 15x8 and what are the differences?

So what exactly is considered a lot of rear spring sag? I know stock dimensions are around 17". Is 1/2 to 3/4" of sag excessive enough to warrant new spring packs over shackles?

need some help. I was reading that 17" from center of wheel to the fender is stock height. So you go from the center on the wheel to the fender flare or the fender?
I just tryed to get mine and I'm lost. From center of the wheel to the flare I'm at 22" and 23" to the fender.

I am putting on a Rubicon lift. Vehicle is a 2001 Cherokee Classic. Plan to run 31 x 10.50 tires. Was told by Rubicon that this size tire needs a 4.5" lift or it will rub. They suggest going with 4.5" super flex.
Originally I only wanted to go with 3.5" lift. It seems to me that I would have enough room for 31 x 10.50's with 3.5" lift but apparantly its not high enough.
Does anyone have any advice or knowledge?
Truck will spend couple months a year in Colorado mountains in rough 4WD roads, but the rest of the year will be on paved streets.
Greatly appreciate advice.

Alright guys I need some opinions...I'm currently planning a RC 3" Series II Lift with full springs. On top of that, I'm thinking of adding IRONMAN ANDY'S adj. shackles, and JKS ACOS coil spacers. I contacted RC via live chat and asked the guy if the Series II would accept Sway-Bar Disconnects, as I'd like a little more flex. He said "Not for the XJ". IS THIS TRUE? If so, then I am really going to reconsider my route for the lift. BTW I'm planning on running 30 or 31x10.50's After lift is installed. I need some help determining if his answer is correct, and an overall opinion of my lift set-up. Thanks!
