Hi I'm new to the forum and jeeps. I just picked up an 86 2dr Cherokee and was wondering about lifts. I had planed on going with a Rusty's 4.5 but I just found some post on pavementsucks.com that were anti Rusty's (some for quality some for service) I was hopping you guys could weigh in and maybe point me in the right direction if Rusty's is a company to avoid. thanks Rob

reading opinions on the internet is a shure fire way to be mislead.
the rusty's stuff had some issues several yrs ago. i ran some of their products and never had an issue with them

i have a bunch of rustys crap and have never had any issues with it....stop reading things on the intraweb...it will pollute your mind (when reading forums you need to understand that most people there are just regurgatating what they read somewhere else on the internet and have no experience...and bunch of internet know it alls and tough guys)

I've had a number of rustys parts, coils and leafs have been good to me, shocks I like a lot. The tracbar is the only item I had trouble with.

you will always get people that say I like, I dis-like, best thing to do is ride with people that have that particular lift, see if it is something that you like, also consider what your gonna do with the vehicle, lots of wheeling, not a whole lot of street driving, something with a harsher ride, but more durable springs might be your way to go.

my 4" rustys yj lift has been great, after 8 months of use, i love it, though i flog it and cycle the springs a lot, i have had 1 spring in the rear sag about an inch. otherwise, handling and articulatyion are great.
