Rock Krawler Lift

[Csward12]

Gents,

I’m installing the RK 2.5” Flex Kit this Sunday the 22nd....

I installed the RC myself, and will do so with this one, however......

Anyone in SoCal that wants to assist for time purposes would be greatly appreciated.

If interested, I’ll provide the beer.

Let me know!!!

I am also looking into the flex kit. Did you opt for the kit with new shocks? I'm a little new to all of this and right now me and the wife are debating on the mopar kit or the RK flex.

I dont have the flex kit, but I purchased the Falcon 2.1 shocks and I am running those with an RC spacer 2.5 lift till I can get the RK springs and arms installed. The falcon shocks perform very well in my opinion, but I think thats a pricier option. Out of the options you are looking at though just by build quality and pricing wise I would opt for the RK over Mopar. I know the mopar lifts were having spring bow issues and RK corrects it. Im kind of biased though because thats what I purchased

Not to butt in, but you will want shock extensions or longer aftermarket shocks for sure with the RK system. The Falcon 2.1s and Fox 2.0s are the least expensive shock options available right now that we recommend pairing with the RK kits. Eventually Bilstein will have some shocks available but I don't have an ETA. Those will be around the $320 for a set mark.

I did not because they weren’t available when I ordered. I purchased the Teraflex Falcon shocks.

That’s what I purchased. The Falcons.

I got a question, I was talking with another forum member about the springs we got for the RK lift. Our part numbers are for JK springs, 1.5 “ fronts and 2.5” rears. Im curious what your part numbers say on your springs. Thanks!

Only mentioning it to try to get an idea of what other people are getting lift wise out of it as well. Because according to the part numbers i have and the part numbers I ordered they are different. The ones i recieved are $179 dollars and the ones i paid for are $209. So I feel i got cheated.

Hmm, maybe something that should be addressed with RK.

Ye

Hmm, maybe something that should be addressed with RK.

yeah im going to try to find out tomorrow. One member said they told him cuz the jl is lighter. But doesnt justify paying a higher price on the same thing i could have bought for cheaper.
