3" long arm lift with longest travel
What long arm lift in the the 2.5" to 3.5" range has the longest travel? I'm looking to stuff 37s. I already have flat flares so all I need to do is the pinch seam mod and I should be able to fit 37's. Also, with only 3" of lift, will I need to limit my travel with bump stops or will I be okay? I want maximum travel so if I need to use bump stops, I would rather go with a 4" lift if i need to to gain articulation.

my recommendation is the rock krawler i have a friend with it and it is top notch all abuse proof and indestructible. They will be coming out with shocks soon to help gain a little more articulation out of the system.

With any lift in the 2.5 to 3,5 range, your going to need bumpstops if you want to run 37's. I have the 3.5 RK mid arm with 37's and I can't say enough good things about it. As far as bumpstops I have 3 in the back and 1.5 in the front and also flat flares

That's what I'm leaning towards is a 3" triple threat from Rock Krawler but I want to know how the articulation of that system compares to other systems out there. Will I need new driveshafts with a 3" lift? The Rock Krawler system looks pretty complete so I'm guessing, that shocks, a gear job, wheels and tires should get me up where I need to be. What is the travel on this system and who else is running this system and what did you add?

3.5 RK Long Arm with Bilsteins, stock flares, and 35" mug grapplers. no bump stops, and the only rubbing is the slightest kiss on the rear stock bumper. Looking to run flatties and 37s one day, without bumpstops. We'll see.

Get a kit with some Long Travel Shocks if you want articulation..
If you want to go with 37's you can always run a LCG on 37's. Articulation will be there.
