Thanks Ryan Peterson
So you have 8" of lift with short arms right now? Or are about to buy an 8" lift?
I can't imagine 8" lift with short arms.
What size tires are you aiming for to need 8" of lift?

I want to order the long arm upgrade kit, do i just call you to order one? Also did you also make a change to the way the transmission bolts stick down? It does not show in your photo. If not don't worry as i have done this mod when mounting pre-2004 skid plates to post 2004 TJ's a couple if times and its easy enough to do. If anyone is intrested please just PM me for details.

Lastly is there a plate that mounts on the to the inside of the uni body rails where the arm mounts bolt through onto the body?

Thanks
Dave

I ordered the upgrade kit from roughcountry on mondat and it all showed up yesterday,this stuff is beefy as hell,the pics dont do it justice, I think it would be hard to bend any of these parts.still need to work on the trans bolt placment.Hopefully the weather will break so I can get this installed this weekend I will let you guys know how it goes.

So I keep reading all over, and getting suggestions...
People say a 3 link setup is best for crawling, and the y link limits droop. But, a 3 link like the rock krawler is 800 bucks.

How does YOUR kit work in the rocks, on the street, and in fast trail situations?
Im looking for great flex, a comfortable ride, and something that works well for big bumps and ruts.

Been slacking to get in the thread. Like the lift. Hoping to add soon. Read the Four Wheeler write up. You're a Super Star now. LOL. Very Cool!!! Think it is a great bang for the buck. Was hung up on BDS or RE. But Rough Country might just be the one.
