Money no object...who makes the best 3"-4" lift (quality, fit), and why, for the 2dr Rubicon? Short and long arm. Thanks.

In my opinion Clayton has to rank right up there, based on quality, strength of parts, adjustability, design and completeness of kits. Their website has lots of install pics.

in all seriousness look @ the first 2-3 pages of the modified section. There are probably 3+ threads exactly like this, so why waste bandwidth making another?

In my opinion if money was no object I would go for either a Teraflex long arm kit or a Full Traction long arm kit, along with one of Off Road Evolutions coilover suspension systems. If you want flex the regular coilover, if you wanna blast through the desert then the double throwdown system!

Your Jeep would be a monster with those setups!

Some people are new to forums and some are even newbies can't we stop giving them such a hard time about the SEARCH feature? Honestly replying with a link and helping someone find info would of been a little bit more polite and made someone feel more Welcome..... It's my opinion so if you want to razz me for saying it go ahead, waste your time!

Agreed.....people need to be more relaxed and think before commenting...Yea its all been said and done and searching is the best way but sometimes people don't spell correctly or have different standards in labeling 33's or 33inchs... which makes searching for something a pain...

About the OP's question I believe the Rubicon Express and Full Traction are among the best in complete kits.

I would have to agree that if money is no object, get the EVO coli over set-up.

I'd also go with a 4 link lift instead of radius arms if possible.

And I'd go 4" LA. I'm partial to my Full Traction, but there are a few others worthy of your consideration. The names I keep seeing mentioned on other threads are Teraflex and Clayton.

Keep us posted!

To me it seams like Full Traction makes the best and most reable equiptment.
