picking up my jeep tonight with the 6" lift. after doing a lot of research, I did not go with the Skyjacker shocks, I went with slightly longer Procomp MX6 adjustable shocks. At first glance the kit looks great, its powder coated back with red springs. Right off the bat the Front end sat much lower than the rear. We actually had to use 2" coil spacers to make it look even...At first I thought that they sent the wrong shocks, but they insisted it was correct. I will take pics soon and post them. Thanks

Just got my Jeep back, it looks awesome and it drives great! 4 wheel parts did a great job with the install. Esp is still working well. We had about 6" snow today, roads are still covered and I had no issues driving in 2wd. with the MX6 shocks it has a noticeably stiffer ride, will try to take a picture in the day light. My only issues is that the rear tire sits uncomfortably close to the rubi rocker guard and pinch seam, going to try to get some flex tomorrow to see if it rubs,

BTW the 2 in coil spacers in the front made a big difference in appearance.

yeah I know...I agree...Double checked with Skyjacker and they said it was correct, even sent pic of the way it sits before installing spacers. Maybe it is because of the Bumper and winch I have installed. 2" looks right, but probably could have gotten away with 1"...I was surprised..I was also expecting better clearance in the back where the tire gets near the pinch seams. It might be fine depending on how the wheel travels, I will check the clearance with flex tomorrow, wouldn't be surprised if I needed to trim it. Other than those issues, it seems to be a good lift, much better quality than old skyjacker stuff. The finish is great on the control arms being a slightly textured black powder coat. Will try to post pics tomorrow.
BTW I did replace both front and rear drive-shafts
