I had a fj with 3" skyjacker lift for 5 years with no problems. I now have a 2013 jku with a 4" skjacker with adj control arms and m95 shocks and my son has a 2013 jku with 2.5" skyjacker with hydro shocks. We have had no problems from either one. My wife drives a 2011 suburban with 4" rancho with adj 9000 shocks. I would say that the ride in my jeep is smoother on the highway than her burb. Great company and quality lifts!!

I'm glad to see skyjacker getting some good reviews. When I first bought my jeep I researched the brands I knew which were skyjacker , superlift, fan tech and procomp. I knew these because there are a million lifted trucks in redneck and Cajun louisiana and these are the brands you see. I just couldn't hardly find any info on these lifts and jeep especially the JK. It was all teraflex, EVO , RK, metal cloak, rancho, currie, AEV, etc.

How bout Rancho? Rancho I feel is underrated. Their kits are priced well and shocks are amazing. At least you see them on the forums. Can't say the same for SC.
I'm running Rancho's correction brackets and they are awesome. 7000 series shocks.
I believe the rebate starts again in March

I ran a skyjacker 6in Class II on a 97 Ranger with Twin Traction Beam suspension. I had alignment issues with it from the start, and abnormal tire wear. Would I buy another skyjacker lift of course I would. The Twin traction beam suspension on Fords was a very touchy suspension that performed pretty well on and off road. It was semi independent road decent on road. I picked my kit up when the truck was just 3 months old and ran it up until 2011. The springs were starting to show age and the camber issues became more clear. I swapped out to a James Duff class III and will say it rides harder on road but it fixed the alignment issues we had always had with the skyjacker( Could never get the camber or Caster into factory specs). Overall with a solid axel vehicle I would say the skyjacker should be a decent kit( came complete with everything that was needed).
