YJ Lift kit, which one is better?

(1/4) > >>

Buddha:
Ok, I need a lift kit for my YJ and I'm torn between two. The 5" 4wd hardware, or the 4.5" rubicon express extreme duty. anyone have any experiences with either of these? The rubicon express seems to get rave reviews, but i can't find any info on the 4wd hardware one. But I think someone told me that BDS makes 4wd harware lifts. any input would be great. thanks
here's the links

I've got the el-cheap-o rough country, and I love it, but then, mine is a trail only rig, so I can't comment on its road manners.

Seabee_BUC:
Even though we have a TJ, the rubicon express lift we have has been great. Zero problems since 2003. And the price wasn't bad, $900 I think. I'd imagine the kit for a YJ is much cheaper. What tire size are you looking to run??? Think about adding a locker and maybe some gears too....

Buddha:
gonna run 33's and a front aussie locker. locker will be down the road though. i want the lift and tires in before spring. i'm gettin the itch.......

HOT-ROD:
look first at what you want to do and then build you rig to suite that vision. and a lot of time's , your capabilities are the true limit of your rig. and i am sure that you are pretty confident in yo uabilities so go for it and i am sure if you buy pizza most of us could show up for a slice or two to help with the install, since there are a few of us that have 4/5 lift install's under thier belts.
