How do you like the Up/Down air system? I was thinking of adding that to my Jeep when I get my ARB compressor and have heard mixed reviews on it. Looking for first hand experiences.
I like it so far but havent got to take the rig out and try it on the trails yet . I also got extra parts for it so I can also connect the trailer to the system.20190428_131115.jpeg20190428_131103.jpeg1556482332196.jpeg

How did you like the road ride? I'm looking at getting a lift for my RR. Cannot decide between a 2inch or a 2 1/2inch lift.
I went 2 inch in order to avoid replacing break lines, hoses etc.. i definitely have more very noticeable body roll, and stiffer ride. I got the stiffer ride to compensate for winch, roof rack and additional gear when traveling. This is not a daily, so overall im pretty happy. One thing people seem to forget when lifting their rig is even with just a 2inch lift, loading the rack or working under the hood can become an issue. I came out of a 79 gmc jimmy on 37s with 6inch lift..everything including driving was a chore. Hope this helps.

One other thing, i definitely need spacer to stop front tires from rubbing on the inside when turning, but i also hope by pushing all four whells out will help with handling.

Awesome. Thanks. We found out (the not so nice way) that we need a lift. Bigger tires will also go in.

How big of spacers do you plan on putting on?
