My Jeep had this lift on it when I bought it. I think it has a great feel to it. Love the way it drives. I test drove some others and they felt pretty sloppy. I have done some research on here and I don't recall reading any complaints. Good luck!

I'm sure the mopar kits are great but I have always heard your paying at least 40% more. I think people figure since it's mopar it won't void my warranty? That isn't true though, I've read mopar or not, if it causes the problem it's not covered.

I had this kit installed by the dealer on my '11 Rubicon prior to delivery. It was pricey, but I rolled it into the total cost of the Jeep. I'm pretty happy with it, especially the warranty. On my last two Wranglers, I ran a Skyjacker 2in kit on one ('98 Wrangler) and a 2.5 in OME on the other ('02 Wrangler). I rate the the Mopar and OME kits about even. The shocks that came with the Skyjacker kit were a bit harsh.

I asked my dealer's service manager about that. He said if they sell the parts and do the install my warranty stays in tact. I have a feeling that this is one of those things that varies from dealer to dealer even though it should be a corporate policy one way or the other.

I'd make sure to get it in writing in case they deny any claims

I have it on my '10 2 door, and it the ride is very stiff. My dealer said the new lifts were going to switch to AEV. Upon hearing that I would say just get the AEV lift, if that is true.

I read through the entire warranty book that came with the rig, particularly the lifetime powertrain warranty section. According to the wording there, the warranty is intact as long as it is MOPAR parts and installed by the stealer. It's going to cost a grip over any other kits (especially when you consider labor costs from the stealer), but if you plan on having the rig for a long time, it may be worth it.
