      Perfect fit

      Everything went on fairly easy, a few hard Parts here and there but nothing I did not expect. Had a problem with the shocks fitting into the lower shock mounts. Not the manufacturers fault. Front was a little tricky but I did get it done and it gave the Jeep the perfect stance that I needed.

      Great lift for the money.

      Our poor TJ had tired factory springs. We put this lift kit on and couldn't be happier with the results. Not only does it ride so much better, but she looks a lot better too. The rear goes on very easily. The front is a bit of a battle, but not impossible. Took me 2 Saturdays to complete, part time.

      Just the right lift

      I needed shocks and springs. This kit comes in less than replacement parts. You will need more parts to make this all work. Adjustable arms to set pinion angle and caster. Rubicon express has the best arms for this with heim joints instead of bushings. Adjustable track bars to re center both axles. I have an X model with the D35. I chose to do the SYE and driveshaft because I want maximum clearance. If you just want a lift or budget doesn't allow. You can get the spacers. I would expect to spend the weekend getting it installed and adjusted. The correct amount of caster will help prevent death wobble, as long as your ball joints are in good condition. The Rear upper shock mounts are a nightmare if they are rusted.

      Rough County lift kit

      Kit was very strait forward on how to install, much easier with a spring compressor. Overall a great product from Rough Country as always and extremely fast 2 day shipping from Extreme Terrain!
