The Just empty every pocket saying is really starting to get revved up. I'm probably going to change to a Treaflex setup with all the adjustable
flexarms. Sure thanks for your help along this journey... J.H.
Yeah, I'm a Bilstein fan. I ran those on the TJ I built, and I bought them for my JK. They provide a good stable ride.

If money is tight right now, u really only need the front adj lowers and rear adj uppers . That's what I did, and will buy the rest of the flex arms later.

Cost can really get out of control when doing a lift. So many guys buy the BB or coil lifts and don't address the caster and rear pinion angles, and then wonder why the jeep rides crappy. The coil lift and BB isn't bad, it's just that there are other things that need to be corrected at the same time in order to do it right.

Good luck with your build
