I apologize for the general lack of information, I am familiar with stock jeeps as I have grown up with them. This is my fist vehicle, and my first time modifying anything pertaining to the mechanical or suspension components of any vehicle. Therefore I thought I would look to a group people who are more familiar with lifting vehicles. I chose to post to this forum as after lurking for about six months, you all seem to build vehicles with a more utilitarian mindset and i appreciate a vehicle with both form and function. Any how, thank you for your assistance in differentiating between the various lift options. My vehicle is currently bone stock other than a set of 31 inch bfg ats. Luckily mine came from the factory with most of the basics, ie skid plates, tow hooks, tranny cooler, limited slip diff in the rear, etc. As for my intentions, I would like a vehicle which is used primarily for road duty with the ability to still tow our boat. I also would like to be able to venture offroad for a weekend at most without permanently scarring my flares. I'm not asking for you to make the decision for me, I just wanted some help in making my decision.
