Anyone running the RC 3.5?

I am, after about 12,000 miles, I'm researching other kits to soften the ride (speed bumps), and lift it a bit more. Starting to hear some unusual noises when I'm turning.

Doesn't look terrible with the current tires. Kind of makes it look like a HD

 

Yeah i was surprised how well it looked with the 32s. I was thinking it was gunna be taller... guess ill have to wait for my 35s to find out the overall size.

Not gonna lie, it looks kinda cool as is without big tires. What size tires do you have on there now?

It's got stock JK tires. I think there a 32. I'm thinking 33s or 35s on 20x12s.

@matt_s, Yeah if you're going to invest in tires, go 35s and be satisfied with them, instead of kicking yourself down the road in a month!

 

Truck looks good, can't wait to see the tire upgrade!

I'm thinking so to. I wanna add another inch or two up front as well

 

Try it with what you have first. Try to preserve the ride. If you lift it an inch or two, you will likely just space the strut or replace it. Easy to do, but relative to ride you want, you may have more insight after experiencing the lift as is. Just a thought...

Yeah I'm gonna swap my other rubber on see how it looks and rides before I decide if I'm gonna add anymore height

If you are just looking for an extra inch or two in height, maybe a small body lift will work. Just thinking out loud. LOL. Great looking truck by the way.

I asked this same question in the Leveling Kit thread, so I also wanted to ask/post it here as well.

I have a question, or maybe matter of individual opinion. I have the Rough Country 2.5" level/lift with the rear blocks (have not installed this kit yet). I am debating as to whether to install that with a 1.5" Zone Offroad body lift, or the Performance Accessories 3" body lift, or go with the 7" RCX lift. I want to put on 35x12.5x20 tires 20x10 wheels with either a -12 offset with backspace of 5 Fuel Mavericks, -19 offset with a backspace of 4.75 BMF Novakane Death Metal, or -24 offset with a backspace of 4.5 Fuel Maverick or Krank. Just looking for those of you that have done maybe a combo of these and opinions. I understand that it is personal preference as to what people want, affordability, etc. I have read this thread and the suspension lift thread and am really on the fence as to which way I want to go. Seen so many great looking trucks that are leveled, leveled + body lift, and lifted. Thanks in advance.
