I am new to 4 Wheeling and I want to lift it right the first time. I am looking at 3 different lifts. 6" Long arm from Full Traction. 6" LCG from Teraflex and the last one is Rubicon express long arm. Idea's? Good? Bad? Pros? Cons? Thank for any info.

what jeep do u got?
if u are new to wheelin i would recomend wheelin it stock for a little while just to get used to your rig and picking lines...
if you dont want to wheel it stock get a 2" lift and wheel it that way then upgrade as u get more use to your rig
but if u dont want to go that route then ive heard alot of good things about rubicon express kits.
remember to add tires and wheels in your budget as well as sliders.
and make sure you have the drivetrain to handle the bigger tires.

Rocktoy is running the Full Traction 6 inch long arm, and it does well from what I have seen of it, she can give you more info. I'm running the Rubicon Express 4.5 inch but in the short arm kit, and I've been real happy with it. I have no complaints on the road or trail, even with the short arms, mine will flex to the point where I'll have 1 to 1.5 inches of air between the bottom of the front coil and the coil bucket. Maybe one of these days I'll upgrade to a long arm kit, but right now my Jeep is still more capable than I am as a driver.

I have a 00 Jeep wrangler, it has a 4" that some one put together before me, it is nasty looking. I am running on 33" tires, stock axles. I just put on rock sliders from body armor.
