4" Lift

Wow... okay. Not trying to offend you. But if all your looking for is a lifted jeep that's going to stay on the road, then pretty much ANY of the lifts will work so long as you deal with the problems you'll introduce to the steering geometry by going so tall on a 2-door. Good luck with your build.

.....and just like several of us were indicating, this unfortunate Jeeper on JKO is now learning the hard way. Perhaps he should have come here and read this thread first LOL.

So now he's got a POS ~$2300 lift and is now looking to have to add at least another ~ $500-$600 in front control arms. That's not even pricing in the replacements for at least the rear lowers he'll need nor the rear uppers if he actually wheels it.
Who coulda' knowd?
Ho-hum....

Just joined and this is my first post. I own a 2012 JKUR MW3 and just completed the install of the new Mopar 4" complete kit. I wouldn't say it is 100% complete though ha ha....
...I had the Jeep aligned at my local Jeep dealer and they couldn't get anywhere near the amount of caster needed to dial in the front end. It steers horrible with pretty bad wandering and constant correction needed. So... I've been scouring the Internet looking for front adjustable uppers and lowers....

I get positive reinforcement from threads like this every day after forking over $2750 for my MC 3.5" ARB lift. I did have to add a $450 Adams front driveshaft (I netted closer to 4.25"). For a few bucks more than this fella... I've got the sweetest riding bolt on lift out there. Imho.
I just upgraded to King coil-overs so now I can avoid threads like these like the bubonic plague...

Yup. Your rig was the first time I'd seen some up close. Been a long time waiting.
I didn't go all crazy with the long arms, IBP, or bypass shocks but I'm really looking forward to setting the ride height to where I exactly want it and enjoying the additional flex + overall sexiness. Yes, I'm shallow. haha

Well I installed the lift, 3.5" JKS. It is a nice quality lift but the instructions are the worst I've ever seen. May as well have been a one liner, here's your jeep, here's lift, put them together. Also replaced the upper control arms with adjustable JKS arms. Installed the Adams 1350 Extreme Duty front and rear driveshafts. Finally got my wheels and tires on last night. Rides and drives as good if not better than if did stock. I'll get some better pictures today in the day light.

So you're still not done yet? Wow....no wonder you "say" you try to avoid threads like this. You just don't know when to quit.
Maybe if they would have come to this thread and "read", unlike yourself who seems to have a hard time achieving reading comprehension, they would have been able to identify like everyone else mentioned that no lift is 100% complete and they may have read this statement I made.
Add a front adjust track bar ($200-$300) to the lift, some front geo correction brackets ($100-$150) and then ask Q-Tec to do a price match and you have a complete lift which addresses all major concerns and is within your original budget.
Total Price: $1900+$300+$150= $2350
Total Price: $1900+$300+$150= $2350
Here....the OP can already help you out with some of the additional parts they needed on the JKS lift. Getting it yet, or is your head starting to hurt, where you're getting that urge to lash out again instead due to frustrations of confusion you now have building up?
Go ahead, keep going.................The only thing you're proving is your ignorance and your obvious further desire to continue being an ass clown.
