    You guys weren't lying. I see how this is going to go. The lift is going to be the first thing to go on but I just booked a trip to Jamaica. So yeah...

    once you get lifted they will back off some, but you dug your own grave when you created a build thread

    Well I'll try to climb my way out but might just end up a bit deeper Despite everyone's recommendation, after mulling it over and doing some research I am going to go with the RC lift to get things started. I'd be lying if I said the $760 price tag wasn't a factor. Additionally I want to keep the ride as close to stock for now. Along with, or shortly after the lift install I'll probably put on some Monroe load levelers. Definitely leaving the option open for a OME hd kit down the road.

    Thats the same thing I did man. RC lift is a great start. With the money you saved you can get a lot of skids.

    I have heard nothing but good things about the RC lift, it should treat you well.

    Glad to see another enthusiastic owner on here!

    I started out with a 2 inch spacer lift and hated it. Then upgraded to the Old Man Emu lift and absolutely love it. Save yourself the hassle and just go with the Old Man Emu right from the start. I wish I could go back about 4 years, I would have built my Jeep the right way the first time!

    Once I wear down these tires I'll be replacing with Duratracs.
