I replaced the Drive Shaft, Bilstein 5100 shocks.

Cheap. Coils that loose height over time, Poor quality shocks that are know for leaking, poor quality control arm joints that are known to strip out and fail, ignores the steering geometry. $1199 is cheap for a 4" lift but you are just throwing your money away with that kit.

Default AEV JK DualSport XT Suspension 2.5"

You can never go wrong with an AEV JK DualSport XT Suspension 2.5"

Complete kit everything you need to lift it correctly here some specs

AEV’s DualSport 2.5-Inch XT Suspension System was designed to appeal to Jeep JK Wrangler owners who want the added highway and trail performance of AEV’s taller 3.5 and 4.5-inch DualSport Systems, but with a reduced lift height.

As with AEV’s 3.5 and 4.5-inch systems, painstaking attention was paid to tuning and geometry in the new system. Not content to simply borrow the same spring rates and shock valving of the taller systems, AEV set out to specially tune coils and shocks that are unique to the needs of the new, lower system. The result is new frequency-tuned, triple-rate coils at all four corners and custom-tuned Bilstein shocks matched to the coils. Additionally, AEV evaluated the new system for cornering and braking and determined that a new, geometry-corrected rear Track-Arm Tower would be needed to help create the kind of handling AEV suspension systems are expected to have.

The new system is rounded out with everything else needed to complete the package. This includes a custom rear track-arm, front stabilizer end link relocation brackets, bump-stop extensions and brake line relocation brackets. Combined with the springs and shocks, these components allow AEV’s DualSport 2.5-Inch XT Suspension System to deliver classic AEV on and off-highway performance, exceptional reliability and a lower, more user-friendly lift height.

Key Features:

• Same ride quality as 3.5" and 4.5" lifts with reduced height
• Coils and shocks tuned to the needs of the lower system
• Reliability and durability you expect from AEV DualSport Systems
• No exhaust modifications required
• Accommodates 33" and 35" tires
Lift heights will vary depending on actual vehicle weight.

Recommended Tire Size: We recommend pairing 33" or 35" tires with this lift kit.

Note: No exhaust modifications required

Kit Contents:

• Springs (4)
• Shocks (4)
• Bump-stop spacers (4)
• Rear track bar (LHD only) (1)
• Rear track bar tower (1)
• Brake line drop bracket set (4)
• Front stabilizer end link relocation brackets (2)

Default how much off roading do you plan to do? JK Lift options

How often do you plan to go off road?
When you do what are you expectations?
What Kind of off road driving have you done in the Past?
Are you looking to play in the sand, climb over rocks, or just drive over curbs?
How often are you going to do it?

I think these are important questions to answer before you decide to Light money on Fire

You can Always PM or email me if you have questions you need answered.
