I have the 4 inch standard kit. I have been very happy with it so far. On this forum you wont hear a single good thing about Skyjacker except for a few people. I have heard that the heim style joints wear out really fast. Go with the standard and buy adjustable arms from a different company. I am going to get the nth degree mobility adjustable uppers.
heims do wear faster with street use. They are not very pavement-friendly and I've had to go through 3 heims just on the trackbar. If you have a trail only vehicle, then heims will suit you fine. You get some nasty flex out of those. Skyjacker kits are good quality and I have not had a problem with mine. Beating out a RE 3.5" kit with my sky 2.5" on the rti ramp sealed the deal. I won't go with any other. If it functions right, it works for me
Their customer service is great as well (in my experience).
Don't listen to people hammer down skyjacker if they don't even run the kit themselves.
I have run a few Skyjacker components in the past...
When comparing them to the alternatives, I don't think there's ONE thing Skyjacker does that I prefer over the competition.
In my opinion, the kits aren't as well thought out as the competition and the quality of materials sucks.
Spend some time and research the down-sides of all the companies out there and figure out what you want. You don't need to go with just one company too, you could run a mix of RE and JKS components for example and have a very nicely set up Jeep...
I best price I got on a RE LA was from Jeepin Joe. But that was a while ago...
