From what I can tell as far as replacement arms, seems EVO 2" dom is largest diameter, and uses the currie joint which is very appealing. Others look to be 1.75 or smaller material, which maybe a non-issue. The evo enforcer 3" is what I've had my eye on for months, but I'm still open to other input

I don't understand why it doesn't come with a front adj track bar for that much money..

That wasn't trolling. Re-read your post. The way it reads to me is: rides like crap because it's RC. I can't be bothered to figure out why it handles like crap. The only way it will ride good is if I throw multiples of thousands of dollars at it.

May not be the way you intended it to sound, but it does.

My point was valid. I don't know who installed the previous lift or why it handles poorly. Neither do you, and you appear uninterested in finding out. Just because someone chooses mfg A over mfg B does not mean it is going to handle any better. It's the parts, the install, the setup, the overall build. Again, to me, your post reads as 'tell me lift X rides great and that is the one I am buying tomorrow...'

X2 on the RK flex, love the coils.

ALTHOUGH, i agree with above too. Throw on a rear axle side TB bracket, DL flip kit and maybe
Shocks, i bet the ride would be 10x better.

The best advice on choosing a lift is to find local guys with various lifts and take a ride to find what you like. Ride is 100% subjective and most do not want to admit they made a mistake on buying their lift.

When I first purchased my JKU it was stock and had to have a lift so I paid $1000 to have a ProComp 2.5 inch installed on my Jeep and it ride like crap. At if and every pot hole o felt my innards bouncing around. Then a buddy upgraded from a 3 inch to a 4 inch and I purchased his 3 inch EVO Plush Ride coils and pairs then with Rancho RS 9000xl shocks and love the ride. Also put Rock Krawler adjustable front control arms and kept the stock front uppers and stock rear upper and lower control arms. I can go anywhere the boys with 49's and Coilovers I just need to be a little more deliberate and thoughtful on my line. As for Daily Driving I have a 40 mile one way commute on Texas roads and they are not the best.

I've found the Currie kit for over $1000 cheaper than the Evo kit, both have johnny joints, the currie kit even comes with aluminum rear anti-rock sway bar... Is this a no brainer?

Because at that height, evo will tell you that you need their drag link flip kit which uses the stock TB with a raised axle side bracket. Its all about the up sell

Yes, at 3" using a TB bracket the axle should center up. Most your 3-3.5 kits are higher up front so the axle will still be off a bit.

I can get the teraflex 2.5" with the 9550 shock for a pretty good price. Yall think it's an ok lift or should i just save and get something different? i'm iffy on the teraflex shocks.. I really want the RK 3.5" but that 1200 plus having to buy shocks is a lot for me.

2.5 flex w/ Rancho 5000x ($150-$200)
