Default RC 4" X-Series lift?

I've been looking at 4" lifts and I found a great deal on a barely used rough country x-series lift. I have a 2009 JKU and its my dd which I don't take offroad much. What do you guys think about this lift and about buying it used? Any info helps. Thanks.

As far as 4" kits go, it is one of the most complete. Look at the flex arm ends and see if there is excessive wear. Look at the brake line extensions end threads for wear. Look at the sway bar discos for wear( a known issue for some). Print the install directions and kit inventory everything.

Eventually if you wheel or as miles progress the boot on the frt shaft at the transfer case will spit grease from being at such an angle. The center boot could tear as well.

Good luck and good choice.
