Stability problems and sags on CJ |

Been running a Rancho 2.5" on my CJ5 for 10 years. Decided to go to Skyjacker 4" to clear new 33's. After installation front only gained 0.5", rear gained 1.5". First road / trail trip totaling 230 miles and it has sagged 2.5" in rear since installation. Less stable on road than old Rancho setup (using same shocks too). Don't like it, don't have confidence in product. Will try for refund. Wish Rancho made a 4" CJ kit. |

I got the Skyjacker 4" lift when I first started getting into off-roading and looking back I didn't research enough. The lift is incomplete, and the staff at Skyjacker told me that because of the transfer case drop kit, that I would not have to get a Slip Yoke Eliminator Kit or CV rear driveshaft. They were WRONG and I was too inexperienced to know any better. After only about 4 mounths the u-joints in my rear driveshaft had been destroyed and they actually blew apoart on my way to the shop, and due to the fact that I was on the highway it also tore apart my muffler and severly damaged my transfercase. In the end the lift has performed just OK, it seemed like a huge increase of offroad ability at first but then as I got more into the off-roading world I realized how much the kit was licking. I realize that I should have done more research and got a second opinion about the SYE kit, but the fact that the people at Skyjacker asured me that I would not have to make any driveline modifications says something about there custmoer service and honesty. I would not recoment this kit. |

I've had my lift for about two years now. I've done moderate trail driving, mostly city. I've had to replace control arm bushings twice. Quick disconnects make noise on bumps. Control arms won't seem to stay tight enough. Skyjacker no help. Based on performance and customer service, I will never buy another Skyjacker product. |

i wanted a kit that would be a good starter to lifting my rig... i got a 'poser' lift, makes the jeep look good and can fit bigger tires, performs like crap! it hasnt even been 1 year and 3 hydro shocks are rusted right out and blown, skyjacker forgot all my stickers, the ride is extremely ruff on the highway, the disconnects were not drilled properly, and the zirc fittings on the lower control arms are extremely hard to get at (this may be do to the idiots that installed the kit...but probably not)... i highly recomend a different kit... anything has got to be better than this kit |

This was the first lift I put on my TJ. It honestly did a good job on and offroad. After the initial break in period, it settled to 3.5". I wouldn't use the front trac bar bracket mine rusted and broke. Do yourself a favor and get a real adjustable trac bar like the RE1610. The only other thing to watch is your lower control arm brackets. The poly bushings at each end of the lower control arms can tear the brackets off. |
