Does anyone have or know anything about Full traction suspension lifts?? Are they worth the money??? Has anyone heard anything bad about them??? I'm just curious cause I'm thinking one of there 6" long arm lifts might be under my jeep in the future ~clap ~clap ~clap

The quickest way to double your money is to fold it in
half and put it back in your pocket.

I would rec the LCG kit from Teraflex. The 6in is to much lift, stay with a 4in.

Garhead, thanks for the info. That's the kind of stuff I'm looking for.

Hurleygo3, that's one issue I've been trying to decide on.......4" VS 6". I keep thinking I would like to stay with 33's so a four inch would be plenty.

Jeff, after reading Garheads post and the advice you have given me I think I'll be looking into the Rubicon Express


Thanks for the help guys.

Now I'll have to start counting my pennies just to be able to afford the lift that I want. ~cowboy

I have ran both the LCG kit with 4in springs and 37"s and the Currie kit with 4in springs and 37's. You just have to set your bump stops and shock travel.

I have installed & currently run the 5.5 rubicon LA kit and I know of a few with tera flex kits both kits are very nice & work well the thing that sells me on rubicon is the skid plate if u look at the hardware it is very beefy my whole jeep is built off a rubicon kit the skid plate system brings all your link mounts into the skid plate system for great clearence but the terraflex has beefy link arms  I just made my own links & used the rubicon skid plate

I'm running the 5.5 RK kit 3-link front 4-link rear. I haven't had any problems with this kit. I have heard that some people have different problems with every kit available for different reasons. Mostly poor driving (forcing the vehicle through a rock and a hard place) or the installation. Hiems breaking, bolt loosening up. ect....
Locktite red every nut and bolt.

Good luck on what ever kit you go with.
