The 4.5" RE is a very good setup, I ran it for ages. For a spring under design it is one of the best.

I've been doing alot of research on YJ suspension kits and it always boils down to RE being the best stuff by far. Also one of the most complete kits on the market. seems kinda pricey but I guess you get what you pay for.

Love mine...

Good flex (if you've got the right shock length and get rid of the trackbar)

(And I'm not trying to flex it on the curb :flipoff2: )

I run that lift on my CJ. It gets really good flex, i mean REALLY good, but costs a ton and you loose lots of clearence with the ubolt blocks they decided to put in. I really dont like mine very much, certainly not worth $1200 bucks. Do a RE spring over for $900(comes w/springs). I made a mistake buying this kit and not buying the spring over.

My CJ will not fit in a standard garage anymore RE 4.5", 35's, and no body lift.

What size tires are those Lutzke21 ?
Is that just the RE kit or some extra lift on top of that?

I plan on runing 35" MTRS and a belly up skid plate. Also looked into putting on the teraflex long hoops in front and rear shock bar in back, any problems with those two mods or should I just forget it?

It has a 2BL on too.

I need bigger rubber.
