what is needed for a full EVO suspension setup?
I'm looking to get rid of this rubicon express lift. I want to run the EVO coilovers on front and lever on rear. i'm currently running 4.5" long arm and 37's and would like to stay with that configuration for a bit. future plan is 40's -42's
do i keep any parts from this current lift such as springs or do i replace those as well? a buddy told me evo has a full lift but i'm not sure i'm looking at the right thing on their website.
i already have jks front and rear adj trackbars and the teraflex drag flip kit which i would like to keep.
any help appreciated. yes i will call EVO but wanted to see what forums members have done with evo's setup

We have the full EVO suspension including front coilovers, rear EVO lever and the Long arm kit with the envy links.
Here is a link to our install of the long arm setup...

For that top you have does it come with soft windows too? I would love that look with full front doors and half rear with soft upper.... Never mind I just answered my own question.
Anyway I knew WOL or WOLette would chime in.
JK Looks awesome WOLette makes me look forward to getting home from deployment so I can get mine. With that being said it looks like I will be getting a '12 JK maybe I'll get lucky and they will bring back DWB.
Make sure you post before and after picks of your lift swapping so we can see... I LOVE pictures.

how much does the Evo setup yield in lift? i may have missed it somewhere but did'nt see a number
Rubican, i will post pics but to be honest this is probably 1-2 months away but trying to start seeing how much this will cost plus im looking into other upgrades so seeing what can be done all at the same time. also, i have the same top, it is besttop trek top. i have had tons of great comments on it and it is soooo much easier than the factory top, plus the look is great!!

ok i'm confused
the long arm kit includes front, rear, upper, and lower long arms and then add envy links for xtra $$$. it looks to me the envy links replace the control arms or do the control arms stay on and the envy links are xtra?? i'm not understanding why i need to get the long arm kit if the envy links replace the arms or am i completely wrong??
i must be wrong because it makes no sense to me to buy the long arm kit wth long arms, then spend more $$ on the envy links and not even use the long arms.
would someone clear this up please
