I have been going back and forth on what lift kit to buy for my DD '00 xj. A few days ago I had decided on the rusty's 4.5" kit and was going to order it until I saw that it was going to cost me $200 in shipping. I had started looking for a way to work around paying that much to ship, which led me to find a bunch of stuff on the various forums saying rusty's isn't all that great. One of my buddies has been trying to talk me into a RC kit for a while (he's been around 3 yjs that have RC kits, and he bought one for his zj ) so I did some looking around, I found that jc Whitney had free shipping on orders over $75 and they had a 4.5" kit from RC for $450, so I called to ask if the kit had rear spring packs or aal, and being assured the kit came with spring packs, I ordered it, now I'm wondering if this is going to be one of those times where its the worst money I've saved.
The vehicle isn't going to be wheeled too much, maybe one day a month, and I'm only planning on 31" tires and hopefully a locker in the rear at some point. I'm basically shooting for what I think an suv should have been from the factory. A vehicle that will take me hunting, fishing, camping, let me drive around in the snow, and take me out to play on the trails every once in a while.
Thanks for your thoughts / opinions.
