Pretty sure I've seen the rock krawler 3.5 in mid arm flex system on a sponsors website for less than 1200 all you would need is shocks

Any thoughts on the Rubicon express 3.5" lift?
You must not have looked at all of them. They have options from $250 on up.

You can get the 3.5" coils with any of the 2.5" lifts for the same price as the 2.5" lift from them. You may have to call them though. Mind you though this is coming from what others have told me I haven't ordered mine yet.

Sounds like 37's on a sport is not usually done. But I plan to do so..if it requires the axle sleeves and gussets, then that's what I'll do. I think. But I have about 6000 dollars to spend...and I wanna know what you guys would do to get there. I do want the 37s though and a min. 3.5" lift.

Let me know what you guys would do?

I'll get a shot tomorrow.

If your wheeling with 37s you will break ur d 30. 6k will go quick. I would upgrade my gearing if u plan on 37s u will need axles too. I'm far from an expert though, this is all just what I've read about on here. I'm sure a few people will answer any questions u have.

Not Axels. I meant drive shafts.

I have an 09 an I would go with Rock Krawler. I have an AEV lift, but my control arms and drag link are RK. I should had gone with them from the get go. I would do their 2.5 max travel with flat fenders for 37's instead if a 3.5 with flats.
