JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Default VIDEO: $300 Rough Country 2,5" BB w/2.2 shocks...

Well this is a $300 RC lift with shocks. The Jeep rides the same as stock, even better with RC 2.2 shocks. I've had shock extentions with rubi shocks, but they would bottom out all the time. The RC 2.2 shocks are way better, and with the JK-Forum discount, you will pay about $280 for the lift. It's super easy to install and it works fine! Just thought i'd give a little plug to Rough Country...
I will get the 4" RC lift and 35" tires when i save enough $... But for now this will do...
Anyway here's the video (this is the first time i took it off road with the shocks, i'm going to Rousch Creek next week end for more testing... Look for part 2 soon)

Yeti, you know you will never mod your Jeep so stop lying!!

I digress...
I am so happy with my RC BB w/ Rubi Shocks and coils. IT looks great and is capable off-road. Jeff and Ryan from Rough Country are great! Even without the discount its still a great kit for the money!!!!!

I recently wrote them to commend them on a great kit and wanted to add the Brake extention Brackets and some decals to sport what's underneath and they're sending them out right away!

I can't wait till they come out with the JK Rails!

Go Rough Country you won't be let down.

Peace!

I have this kit with shock extensions. I still have a little rake, but barely noticeable. The funny thing about this kit is it teases you. The devil on your shoulder says "sure you can fit 35s...". The angel on your other shoulder says "get real, it's really only 2" of lift in the back - stick with 33s".


I do recommend getting upgraded (longer) shocks and bumpstops. I feel like my shocks get slammed on bumps if I don't slow down. If you go slow, it's a great kit. I'm waiting for my stock springs to start to sag. Then I'll upgrade to stiffer springs with a little more lift.
