Both have excellent customer service. Teraflex has superior products.

I was in the same boat. I read about the different spring rates rough country offered for the TJ models since they torque towards the passenger rear. Any who, I decided to go with teraflex with my JK. Great lift with the exception that my passenger rear coil seems to be rubbing on the track bar. If you decide to go with teraflex and want the extra 3/4" lift then grab some coil spacers since that's all your getting with rough country. My vote goes to teraflex.

i am running the 3.25 inch lift from r/c..no problems so far..have 1000 miles on it so far it performs excellent..the only difference that i did to my jeep is i extended the diff.breather hoses,and straightened out my brake lines back and front..also i ordered the 4 door kit and my jeep is a 2 door rubi..i have a ranch so i put my jk to work as well..second the roads coming into my spread are terrible.. big pot holes cracks and uneven roads put a hurt on your tires and suspension out here.riding on dirt and caliche roads are a norm out here.i can normally tell when a suspension system is going to last me out here ,,...so far so good..the 4 door suspension system is a little stiffer and the 2.2 r/c shocks absorb alot of the hard hitting abuse i have been putting the suspension thru...i am very happy with this system...this is my two cents on this..

I don't think there's any comparison whatsoever. Teraflex has no competition.
