I will be getting a 2" lift soon and was wondering which was better, the Rubicon Express 2" BB or the Skyjacker spacer lift with hydros. I drive my Jeep everyday to school so I want a smooth ride but I also wheel almost every weekend.
I used to run the Skyjacker bb on my daily driver and liked it. drives allmost the same as a stock jeep. I do know for a fact that the 2" SJ is really just 1.75" lift. I dont know about the RE.
Just get the RC 2.5" spring lift for 299. Best deal out there and it's a REAL spring/coil lift, not just spacers. I just replaced my REBB with it and love it.
I just did the RE 2" budget boost with the twin tube shocks and I think the ride is about the same as stock . . . maybe just a little stiffer. My problem is that I got some driveline vibes . . . another member said to add some washers between frame and skid plate which will lower the driveline so thats a cheap fix (hope it works).
Almost forgot . . . spray the hell out of the shock bolts with penetrating oil the night before . . . I didn't and spent the day drilling out snapped bolts!
