Rough Country 3.25” lift kit questions & concerns

LOL!! Never said you were trying to disprove me or anything and really, I couldn't care less even if you were. You just sound like you already have your ideas about how things work and really, that's cool. The most I can offer is what I have experienced over the years. You can take it or leave it. :yup:
SO LONG AS the spacer kit comes with shock extensions OR shocks that are short enough to prevent too much droop, you should be fine with 2.5".

Truthfully, nearly everyone here will give you good advice as far as product quality and try to save you money in the process. I will say this, Teraflex has more breaks than any company I've ever seen. You said you looked at that as one of your options. I would stay far away from that one if I were in your shoes.

^this. I bought my jeep with a rough country 3.5 lift already installed and am unhappy with the ride. If I had to do it and you only want 2ish inch of lift I would do this kit. 2inch evo springs in the front and 1inch spacer in the back. Pair it with some good shocks like rancho 9000xl. Should be very budget friendly and give you want you are looking for.

For the most part you can trust just about any coil spacers as they are all made of the same thing. I'm pretty sure Rubicon Express makes up to two inch coil spacers. I run spacers on my TJ with longer shocks and it rides great and handles safely offroad (as long as I'm not behind the wheel). Good luck to your search but I think you'll be satisfied with a budget boost.

Lol. We always will get some random dude that's been a member here for 3 years with hardly any posts and says 'I love my Terrorflex lift, you should get it.' They always seem to pop in at just the right time. Hence my use of the word 'nearly.'

Wait, I love my Teraflex Lift !!...
Of course they are just front spacers to deal with the droop I got when I replaced the front bumper with the EVO Proseries and winch. and are just chunks of poly. But being Teraflex, I expect them to crack and be unusable inside of a year...

We've sadly had two members here in recent months with cracked Teraflex spacers. No joke.

thanks for the help guys and quick question i’ve seen a lot of the rancho shocks they look good how do you like how they ride and if i just got a brand new jk you think my willy’s package (aka rubicon performance suspension) is good enough or i should upgrade cuz a lot of the kits i see don’t come with anything extra other than like the spacers and sometimes shocks

I've heard great things about them but haven't run them myself. They do have a deal going on right now too though:

what you guys think about this i selected the option with no shocks mostly because it doesn’t tell you which specific shocks you get but it has shock extensions what’s your guys take on using the extensions is it basically the same thing because i figure if i save up some more money later in life i can remove the extensions and buy some 2.5” shocks later on.

You mentioned 35's and 37"s tires.
This system with the RS9000's is a SCREAMING deal.
But would be really tough to fit 37" tires on this system.

On Kane Creek with a spacer in the rear too, a 35" tire.
I also like our 3" SPORT system too. You can easily add to this down the road too.
