ACOS aren't exactly the best for on the fly adjustment. They take quite a bit of work to readjust. If that's what you're considering them for, I'd rethink them.
That being said, I think 2.5 OME and 1.25 JKS = heaven on earth. It equals out to about 4" in the end if you get the stiffer OME springs. Best part, you have room for a tummy tuck / gas tank tuck. Give Dirk at dpgoffroad.com a call, he'll steer you towards the right direction.

I'm looking at dpg right now thanks to your post. I have to take into account the fact that whatever prices I see on an American site has to be currency converted to my Canadian dollars. OME seems to be the way to go though. I like the fact that their "Deluxe" kit on the dpg site includes the JKS Discos., BL and MM's. That's an advantage!

Yep DPG makes a very very complete kit.
But of your choices on the poll, I would have to pick the 4" RE with AntiRock

As for the RE 4", it's just a nice kit. Well put together, great warranty and customer service, and from what the guys around here say it's performs pretty dang well.

I think you want to do more research on RE. Try googling "rubicon express" bushings and once you have read thru the issues you can research better control arms. Look at Currie or Rock Krawler.

For the wheeling that it sounds like he'll be doing, I think Rock Krawler will be a bit out of his needs. Currie would be quite the overkill, but I can't say anything bad about their system. I've seen some amazing Jeeps with their set up.

It may be, but I keep seeing RE referred to as the "be all" lift kit and everyone seems to gloss over the bushing issues or blame it on improper install. The OP needs to know that RE has issues with their bushings and they have had for years. They have switched suppliers to try and solve the issue but it is still to early to tell if they have fixed the issue.
