Does anyone have any feedback from experience with Daystar products? Really want to hear about their bushings especially. I was told they use a kevlar bushing. Thier customer service has been awesome so far supplying details.

Thanks

I've had their new 2" lift on order since 5-18 keep getting told it will ship first of next week. I know it takes time especially on new products. I'm just excited!!

I’d love your feedback and some pictures when you get it installed. I’m thinking that kit with some Falcons or Foxes and you’ve got yourself a great DD that can hit some nice trails on 35’s. I talked to a sales representative/ tech named Pete and he has been super helpful answering my questions.

Not sure if you know this but that kit does not level the Jeep like the description reads. There still is some rake which IMO is okay since the JL rake is minimal stock. I’m thinking a 2” lift is the way to go on a JL that is 80-90% on the road.

I doubt he’ll mind me sharing some pictures he sent me below. He said he’s 6’1. That height looks about perfect for my Sahara. That Jeep pictured is a rubicon on 37’s.

Well I was told today atleast 5-7 more days before it would ship so I cancelled my order and ordered the ReadyLift 2.5 in kit instead. Northridge4x4's customer service is top notch!

@Richard

That’s a bummer you were supposed to be my tester.

Who did you order your Daystar from?

Why’d you go with Readylift? I know other companies have a similar product for cheaper?

Ordered the daystar from northridge4x4 and I just got tired of waiting. I ordered on 5-18 and as of yesterday they said it would still be 5-7 days before it might ship. I'm sure the daystar lift is great but I was ready to lift my jeep sooner than later. I've had experience in the past with ready lift and was very happy with their products. Yes I'm aware the that there are other companies with similar products for less. I'm just glad we have so many options when it comes to jeep parts. Northridge was more than happy to cancel my previous order and send me the ready lift instead. Their customer service is top notch.

Does anyone know if this 2 inch lift is even between the front and back spacers? I don't want a "leveling" kit. I want to keep the stock rake.

The kit comes with shock extensions. They just aren't listed.
