The nice part with BDS is their life time warranty on the springs!!!!!! if they go bad send them back and they will replace them.... I only know about the 3 1/2 and the 5, but i like them.... ;D
Always a work in progress!!  Build, break, repeat!!

BDS makes good quality parts.  I also like thier lifetime warranty.  For street driving, you can't beat a Rubicon Express Budget Boost.  Comes with pucks front and rear and 4 new shocks.  Let me know if you want a price.

I'm considering a BDS too, just put on 31s, no rubbing WOOHOO!! I only put them on for a test fit the other night, no rubbing lock to lock but I can see that I will be into the flares if not into the metal at partial stuff in the front.

I was thinking about a 2 inch BDS AAL with the shocks. Had also considered the AALs that 4WD sells and a set of Skyjacker nitros. Neither setup comes with U-bolts so those will be on the list too. Money is somewhat of an issue but between the 2 big catalogs the price is about the same....

Thoughts?

Try to figure out what you want to do (tire size + trails) If you know you want to go 33s or 35s spring under go right to a 4.5" lift. It will be a bit big for 31"s but is doable. If you don't care about flex and want the 31s to fit better get some AALs or build spring packs from other springs.

I will connect ANY "PA Jeeps Club Member" with a contact that will assure a price and delivery quite satisfying to the wallet.
After confirmation of membership, information of contact will be issued.
Keep me in mind if looking to purchase a BDS Kit for your Jeep.

I didn't say it was going to be cheap, good products don't come cheap. I just know that this contact will help out anyone that knows me or is referred by me.
