^^^^this^^^^. Not everyone likes the same shocks and ride quality... so why force a kit that only supplies one brand of shocks?...
Anyone heard of this lift?

Just to add to the fire, the JKS kit includes shocks that you may or may not like, and quick disconnects which you will not need if you have a Rubicon... Hmmm....

BDS? Are they quality lift kits? No.
Guess what? JKS is now owned and built by Zone/BDS
I damn near would run terror flex first. Almost.

This is what had me balk at the 2.5" system, I know overall it's a minor thing.

Wow didn't know that the jks was owned zone/bds!? I'm sure they ride/built pretty similar then.

I wasn't aware of this either, how long has this been the case?

If I'm not mistaken FOX holdings or (FOX factory) owns them all now.

Quick disconnects is a good point. Someone else on here ordered the JKS from Trail Jeeps and was able to order different shocks (Rancho 9000s I think) so I don't think you're locked in on the Fox if you want different.
Not familiar with Zone BDS. Abysmal? Can you give more context?

I think a couple years, I noticed the phone number changed to Coldwater Michigan, 30 years ago there was a place there called Halls Off Road and I believe they started Trailmaster now Zone and BDS are there along with JKS. Every Jeep in this area has BDS on it, had a guy tell me he thought I was the only drag link flip he had ever seen! Glad I got all my JKS stuff before it changed

Being local to the area yes, fox bought them all a little while ago. They have set it up so zone is entry level, bds mid level, and jks is premium. It's also why all the newer kits come with fox shocks. I think they are still in process of positioning each of their brands.

Trail Jeeps has also just informed me that they are not dealers of JEreel or rancho so where should I go to get those things. Along with this, they suggested I get a K-cal programmer

Check out Quadratec for Rancho parts. I'm not sure if they carry JEReel as well. Assuming you meant to write Pro-Cal, you can also get them from Quadratec.

I ordered my JE Reel drive shafts directly from their website. I haven't checked to see if that is still an option. I called them with questions too and they were very helpful and friendly.
