Default 4" Superlift "Superride" Lift Kit Reviews

Are any of you running the 4" Superlift "Super Ride" Kit. If so what are the Pro's & Con's with this set-up? Is there anything else that is needed to make it a complete Lift minus the Drivesahfts? Any input is welcome....

I ran it for a year, rear springs sagged with weight, in addition, the guy I sold it to just had the front adj trackbar end fly apart on the road.soo, I guess the kit is about 2yrs old now.

I run with a buddy that has the super lift and I have the OME. He refers to mine as the cadillac ride for jeeps. He's rides really stiff.

I've been running the lift for awhile and have no complaints.
It does ride a little rough like someone mentioned but it's not a deal breaker for me. I gained about 5 inches of lift in the front and 4 1/2 in the back with mine, and for the price you can't beat that.

I would recommend it for someone on a tight budge that can't fork out the money on a long arm kit.


You'll also have no problem clearing 37s!

Load it with tools and camping gear, it turns into a budget boost and makes your headlights into shine'n for coons in the trees.

I put roughly 500 phone books in the back of my Jeep the other day and only sagged about 1/2 inch in the back.

I had a 35in spare and daily carried 200 lbs of tools in the rear, when I loaded it with icechest camping gear and such with the tools, it sagged about 1.5 in. In fact I added a 1.75 in spacer to the rear cause it was saggy for the weight I carried.

Anyone else have any experience with this Lift Kit? I'm looking to upgrade from a 2.5" RC Coil Lift, and found a nicely priced package deal for (5) Mikey T Baja's 35's with 17"Goliath Wheels that includes this lift. Under 2G's...Is it worth it?
