I run the RK 2.5 x-factor and love it. Articulates well and has been trouble free with no sagging for over a year. Very pleased with there service. While doing the install they assisted me real time on the phone. Good luck on your purchase.

I've had a Rancho 4" Sport Lift with the RS9000XL adjustable shocks on my 2010 JKUS for 3 years and really like it. 
Right now (until June 30th) you can get the 3.5" Progressive Sport Lift (3-3.5" front and 2.5" rear with progressive springs, Rancho RS66110B) with RS9000XL shocks and get a $306 rebate.
Rancho RS66110B - Rancho 3.5" Progressive Sport System for 07-15 Jeep® Wrangler & Wrangler Unlimited JK - Quadratec

Using Quadratec price that would be $953 - $306 = $647. What a deal!

I did the same for 1 year when I had my 4 door. I went with a Currie 3.5" system with all 8 arms once I started needing better articulation. Basically when I started climbing boulders.

Have a JCR bumper and 10,000lb winch coming so I need to decide pretty soon what to choose. I know with the added weight my stock springs will sag pretty bad. NR4X4 has a good deal on RK but I'm also considering AEV. Anyone running similar weight on stock springs?

Take a look at metalcloak - I have their 3.5" coils and ahve had them on for a couple years - 4 door rubi, bumpers sliders winch etc etc ie heavy and no sagging at all since I've had them, for almost 40k miles.
I have teraflex shocks and I don't mind them, had their arms and switched out to Metalcloak. Good customer service I just don't think there is anything special about their stuff, or RK for that matter, and they cost almost the same as MC. I'd look into MC or Synergy.

I'll second synergy. I've never really heard anything bad from anyone running them. I'm considering them for my next build. They make really good stuff
