I was going to do a coil 2.5" from teraflex. But local jeep guy has a 3.5" full RC lift for sale, with track bar and RC disconnects. He wants $400 for whole package. Only on jeep for couple of weeks before he realized it was to tall for his wife.

I'm debating if I should get it cause it's a good deal... The lift (with shocks) goes for $500 alone. I don't wheel much here in stl. Mainly weekend cruiser and vacation out west vehicle. Out west we'd wheel 1, 2 and maybe 3 rated trails. Cause we do have to drive back home.

Ours is a 2012 auto, have 35"s and chopped fenders.
I just don't want to open Pandora's box on going this high in a lift. Also we do have ACE bumper and might do which... So not sure on sag in future. Pass and stick to originally getting TF or grab this deal and hope for the best??

Thoughts ?

If this is Rough Country... skip it. you get what you pay for.

He probably realized how rough of a ride it was. What lift did he reinstall? Was it another RC?

I would go with the Teraflex. Once the RC lift sags, they will be the same height anyways..

I like my RC 3.5" Lift. Yes the ride is a little rough but its a great kit for the price IMO. RC will also replace any sagging springs and i believe it has a lifetime warranty.
This is one of the few kits around this price range that comes with new control arms which is why i bought this over any other kit
Only suggestion i have is to get an adj trackbar instead of using the drop pitman arm and front trackbar bracket that came with the kit

Idk about you but I wouldn't want to replace my coils every 6 months.

It's amazing how any people replace their parts under warranty. That's got to be costly for RC. Seems like if they made quality parts the first go around they wouldn't have near as much warranty issues. But who knows, maybe they have a weird fetish for replacing parts under warranty.

But then again, if they made quality parts, their prices wouldn't be what they are.

Ive had the kit for 2+ years with a smittybilt bumper and winch and still haven't had to replace the springs yet.

Here is 97 pages of people with RC lifts. Best to get opinions from folks who actually have the brand.

If I could go back in time to when I was lift shopping I would've waited to save up for a kit that was actually worth something. I have the 4" basic kit and I feel like I'm driving a wooden wagon on the Oregon trail. Don't make the same mistake I did and cheap out for instant "performance."
