Easy install and works well
Easy to install, watch some YouTube videos first. I used a bottle jack to raise the frame to get the shocks in and out and worked like a charm. The only thing that took time was getting the old shocks off. Not sure why the hid the top nut but it does some off.Notes to be aware of. Take a couple of hundred miles to set the shocks and the coils. Also it felt like the jeep was floating when I hit bumps. Finally found that you need to center the body over the axel. So if you don't already have adjustable track bars plan on getting front and back. My body was off about half an inch and after I stalling the adjustavle track bars and centers g it up, it drives much better. I went with the RC track bars and hopefully they hold up. They have a lifetime warranty so it seemed worth a shot. Also had to get wheel spaces when I threw 18" rims and 35" tires. Jeep looks great now with a higher stance and bigger tires. Gone is the mail carrier looking jeep.

RC 2.5" Lift Wrangler JK
Good bang for the buck. Springs are a bit heavier than stock springs, but the ride is good and close to stock. Kit was easy to install. I did need a bar to help pop the bottoms of the new springs into place, though it was not bad at all to do. I just had to lift each spring a bit to clear the bump in the middle of the spring holder. The hardest part was getting the old hardware off. I was able to use the stock sway bar links and didn't need to change them. I noticed I only needed the brake line adapters in the back, the front had plenty of line. Lastly, I needed to tweek the drag link a little bit to straighten out my steering wheel but that took 5 minutes to do.

With the right tool it can be done in a day
On a 2009 XWasn't too bad. The instructions are rough if you've never done it. Took me 12 hours. Had to go to town 4 times for stuff I needed so that was a lot of it. Rent a spring compressor it's just a deposit at O'Reilly's then you get your money back. I used 3 floor jacks, a bunch of 2x6 wood blocks, air tools, I only used the rear brake line relocater as the front has plenty of line, I did quick disconnect RC sways links in the front, the rear stayed stock I have aftermarket ones but they won't clear till I get spacers/ rims.I didn't touch anything with the steering, Anyways happy so far with it. It made the jeep look way cooler

Worth it
Not much to say but worth it, it’s not going to lift your jeep sky high but will get the job done, has factory like ride still even lifting it with this kit! Install took a good phew hours if you have the right tools! It levels the front with the back. I like the lift a lot!

Very nice kit
This is the 3rd Rough Country lift I’ve bought and installed. The previous were on TJs and this was a JK 2 door.All parts were packed well and looked well made. Install was easy, but removing the 2” spacer lift the previous owner installed proved difficult. Who lock-tites the rear upper shock bolts in place?!?!?Anyways, the actually netted me about 3” over stock.I did buy an adjustable track bar for the front so I’d have it on in time for an alignment.I also bought the rear track bar bracket which I did not need.All in all very happy with this kit and I will continue buying RC products in the future.

Good starter lift kit
This is a good basic kit missing 2 things that are necessary if you want to do any off-roading, exhaust spacers and extended sway bar disconnects. You will also need a coil spring compressor tool it is best to rent one from O’****** it is free. The shocks that come with the kit are ok they will work till you can afford some better ones, IMO this is still a better option than extended shock brackets. I got 4” of lift in the front and 3” in the rear over stock with this kit.
