Evo Enforcer Vs Rancho 3'/4' Sport

as per my thread title i am curious to know if anyone has ridden on both lifts. my cousin has a 14 JKU Sahara and she wants to lift it 3-4" and eventually put 35's under it. i suggested the enforcer with rancho 9000s because its the most complete kit other than driveshafts, programmer and Drag Link Flip. i am curious to know if anyone has ridden on both the enforcer and on a 3" rancho lift. i know a lot of people compare the the EVO levelling kit and Rancho's 2" sport kit so i figured maybe it would be safe to compare their taller lifts. i am aware ride is subjective thought so no two experiences may be alike.

Disclaimer:
i do understand that the "sport" is the base lift and i only used that as an example so she can purchase Adj front lower and rear Uppers. the trail version comes with fixed ones(if i read wrong please correct me) any opinions would be helpful. her plans arent for right now as she bought it with 33's on it so itll be when they wear out. any info is

cheers

I have had a RC, a Skyjacker and a Rancho. 3' Rancho is my current set up and I am very pleased. I know that it's totally subjective but even my in-laws commented on how much better it is now.

I'm getting my enforcer with kings put on next week
I went with this over any other kit on the market because
1) ORE makes it so you know you can't go wrong with it
2) people rave about the enforcer no matter what shocks they run

I've never read a bad review on the enforcer
EVOs plush ride coils are the best riding coils you can buy currently so the ride will be amazing especially paired with good shocks

Before I purchased my lift I rode in a newer jku with a Rancho lift on it. I'm pretty sure it was a full trail system cause I remember the control arms. It rode great. Very smooth on the road. I really liked it.

However when it came time for me to purchase my lift. I went with the Evo Enforcer because of all the reviews I've read. Nobody around here had one for me to try so I just trusted everything I read. I'm so glad I did. I love it both on and Offroad. It's a little pricey compared to the other. But I truly believe it's well worth it. I'm sure she would be happy with either lift. If she has the extra cash. Get the enforcer, she won't be disappointed.

this is true the only time ive heard anything negative when talking about the Enforcer is when they're paired with a shock that is valved too stiff but obviously thats not the enforcers fault.

how would you compare the rides then? if the enforcer is a ten(being the most comfortable) where would you rate the Rancho between 1-10,
and another reason for asking is that rancho is a lot easier to get up here. there aren't a lot of dealers in ontario for EVO ha ha



and i appreciate all the feedback guys!

I'd say it was a good 7. They were running the rancho 5k shocks. I have the 9k set soft.
I bought mine online. Check out the forum supporters and see if they will ship it cheaper

If my memory serves me correctly I remember reading that the rancho coils are very similar to the plush rides.

I had the Rancho trail system (with arms) and I hated it. It was noisy (due to the poly joints) and rode terrible offroad because the springs sagged in less than a year, almost to the bumps in the back. I put on Metalcloak arms/springs and now it is quiet and comfortable (with the Rancho 9000 shocks).
