Just curious if anyone out there has had any experience with the Rough Country 3" lift kit? I'm thinking of purchasing it, but would appreciate some input. Thanks

From what I've heard, don't bother. You can get much better for only slightly more $$.

How's your Rustys kit working for you? I see your running 245's could you go bigger if you wanted to?

Probably but not much. I could probably squeeze a 32" under it but even that would rub a lot. 31s would be perfect, I think.

Since the R.C. kit is out, has anyone had any experience with the Daystar kit? What about the Skyjacker kit, or would just be paying for a name?

Daystar kit good,
Rustys full spring kit good except for rear shocks,
OME spring are great
Rancho shocks are great
Full OME kit or Frankenlift kit Great also

It sounds like you are looking at spacer lifts
I have never had one on a KJ but I destroyed a pair on a TJ
So I say stay away from spacers
Remember that you get what you pay for

I have the OME springs Rancho struts/OME shocks on the KJ ,well the wife does
it is her DD and she loves it 12-15K so far and not a hich
