Regarding the steering
What about REDNECK stage 2 or 3 kit ?
Or going with teraflex hd frame balance and drag link flip kit plus fox ats steering stabilizer ?

You will definitely want to go hydraulic assist. Stage two or three? Depends on the completeness of the kit you want. You will want to do a drag link flip with that much lift.

As per an experience of a friend of mine
He had psc full kit which was around 2500-3000$$ on 38s mud grapplers and a 6.1L hemi
It didn't work out with him for desert driving
The steering was so tough for desert becuase in desert we are doing sudden and very fast turns unlike rock crawling
Then he replaced it with fox ats stabilizer and was way much better ! And way much cheaper
What about the brakes ? I am thinking to try EBC brake pads then if they weren't strong enough, will go with teraflex full brakes kit

I find it hard to believe assist was to slow on psc compared to stock.. His stock box is taking beating now. Maybe he should have gone full hydro. As for brakes never tried those but i went 13" front and 14 rear if i recall correctly and also upgraded my master cylinder. I can lock up all 4 40s if my abs and such is off.

Well if you have an export Jeep then you may have BR6 brakes already which are 13.25" rotors. I don't know if every export has them or if they are an option. If they're an option, I would just get the BR6s for the front and then maybe upgrade just the rears.

If your friend really had a problem with slow steering, he would be better off running no stabilizer at all. I find it very hard to believe that PSC kit had slow response. He would have been much better going with the 1.5" ram from the 1.75" instead of going with the ATS
