Default More Lift for the Money

What do you think, first picture is my dog Tank and stock Rubicon in December 2008. Second picture is 4/19/09, Jeep with a Rubicon Express 3.5" lift and 35s, dog with a Royal Canine 10 inch lift. Rubicon Express kit was 1649 with Bilstein shocks, Tank ate about 3 bags of Royal Canine at about $120. I wonder if I stuffed his food in the Jeep's gas tank if I would have 40s by next week and my Jeep would sprout a Hemi.

As an owner of a dog named Tank, I approve.
Nice Rig too.

The kit rides great, very happy, just make sure to dial in the caster. I am about 6 degrees right now and it,s smooth. You can find the RE kit at Red Rock 4x4 for 1649 with the 4 bilstein monotubes. I let 4wheel parts know that and they matched the price. But seeing that you are from Missouri, you would get the kit without tax and I think they ship for free so that would be your best bet. I think at 1649 with shocks this lift is probably the best in the price range.
