Alright guys I am strongly considering a new lift in a month or so. I have been doing a lot of reading on 5.5"-6" long arm lifts. Rubicon Express is on top of the list right now. I would like a quality lift. Something for all terrain from Wharton to Raucsh. I plan on going with 35's. This is not a daily driver, but i still want to drive it to the trails. I have only put about 2k mile on it in 6-8 months.

Rick is this the same kit you have on yours?? How do you like it. I think you may be running NJ legal limit. right?
I haven't seen anything from skyjacker or fabtec that looks like what i am looking for.
I have read a lot of reviews on the Full Traction 6" LA kit. Everyone says the squeak like crazy. Anyone know familiar with this company?

Last is the Tera Flex 6"
This kit looks like it just doesn't match up to the RE kit

I found a place that may throw in a SYE and drive shaft with a purchase of the RE kit from them. That would be a hell of a deal.

Please respond. I would love to hear from everyone. I probably will not purchase the kit till the end of Jan or beginning of Feb. I want to do this right the first time so give me your pros and cons
Right now I am just looking at the lift. I know rears will be a problem. I have been scouring the local junk yards for a few months now looking for new rears(a winter build project). Nothing Yet. I don't want to but $2k rears, so Looking for a XJ dana 44 to build. I found several 8.8, but my welding skills are still improving, and the upgrade parts seem to be $$$. I will keep you posted and pictures when that starts.
