RockKrawler Adventure Series 1 w/Falcon SP2 2.1 Shocks or Metalcloak RockSport

So far so good. It does feel a bit stiff but tbh it doesn't feel much different than stock, except for the fact that it sits higher and you get more wind interference/noise. I haven't upgraded the steering stabilizer yet. I'm installing Adams driveshafts within the next week and then I'll look into adding an aftermarket steering stabilizer.

For the price point, nothing compared to the MC GC rocksport for ride. It blows the teraflex out of the water! Every Jeep we build leaves with a minimum of a fox 2.0 Steering Stabilizer. If you’re going to wheel, I’d suggest a relocation kit for it. I love MC but their relocation kit isn’t my favorite

The axle bracket is great. Just buy a stabilizer with a 1 5/8" clamp and you're golden.

@rustyshakelford How is it that Metalcloak gets away with only adding adjustable upper front control arms to their true dual kits. Most "economy" lifts (including RK, and Mopar) often include longer fixed or adjustable lower front control arms to maintain some semblance of geometry/caster (if they include any control arms at all). As far as I know, only MC adds upper fronts only and it seems counterintuitive. Can you explain?

You can adjust caster by shortening the upper control arm vs lengthening the lower. We’re talking small incriments that make a big difference.

Roger that. I guess there is more than one way to skin a cat!
