bill has a rubicon express lift. but since his pretty expensive shocks rusted out after 1 winter i doubt he’d suggest them to someone else for the amount of money he paid.

you WONT clear 33’s with a 3 in… unless you destroy your fenders completely… i was surprised how much damage was involved with cutting mine…

my lift ran me 300 but i got it from craigslist so…

so far I love them, I haven’t had a chance to really test them out though, but they ride really good, but believe me, they sing to you on the road. Were going out to an off road park next sat so I can let you know how they do
