Can you please explain why you wouldn’t? Because if it rides like stock, given the higher ride heights, isn’t that a good thing? I’m contemplating which kit to get... apologies if dumb questions.
Stock isn't a good ride to begin with. People always assume, riding like stock would be good. And some manufacturers talk about stock ride. But what you really want is, better than stock. So it should be better, and definitely not worse. Some kits ride worse. A good kit, will ride a million times better over everything. Think King shocks and coil overs.

Thanks for this. I see those are also the Fox shocks... from what I understand those are one of the best.

Actually most people in that second link I provided, which is 15 pages of people that have the lift and provided feedback, most if not all are saying, better than stock.

You shine those at someone around here on road expect to get a beating or shot; or probably both.

Talked to Jasmine at Bestop a few minutes ago. She asked that I send her a picture and my purchase invoice. So we'll see what happens from here.

I’m gonna do this for sure, any tricks you can share. Was the hardest part separating inner fender? I seen a video where the guy basically rips it apart, lol.
The video on the aal website is spot on. Cant remember if I said to order the new hardware but its nice. 8mm rivnut tool is a must (think its 8mm). Love the look, its not hard. Can probably do a set in 90 mins, maybe an hour now that I know exactly what im doing. I was fretting trimming the plastic tabs but its a non-issue
