I have a 2017 JK with a 2 inch rough country lift and was looking at going to a 4inch rough country anyone have any tips for doing so or a different lift kit
This is an important question. Going from a 2" (which is pretty basic), to a 4" is a huge change. Know why you want that size.Are wanting a taller lift because you Offroad, or want taller tires?
If it's just taller tires just get some flattop fenders they will give you about 3" of extra clearance.
You don't HAVE to lift for 35's,especially for light duty two-tracking. On my 2dr, the AEV 2.5" lift does all I want which is casual trail riding/exploring. If you disconnect the sway bar or really flex, 35's WILL rub at different times. Don't forget.. the bigger issue is power loss due to gearing. My 3.73s are just adequate in my non-mountainous region. YMMV.Didn't realize RC was considered "entry level," as I just ordered my 3.5 $529 kit for 35" tires. Hope I didn't make a mistake. Should I send it back? Also, should I stick with 33's?
Yes I off-road, but only to pull my boat/hunt/fish; nothing serious - really more for the agressive look...
Thoughts from others who may know better than me???
I would be tempted to just buy a spacer lift from TeraFlex for $120(?) and install that for what you plan on doing. A lot cheaper than RC and might meet your needs. Really easy to do. Can always upgrade later if you feel the need.Didn't realize RC was considered "entry level," as I just ordered my 3.5 $529 kit for 35" tires. Hope I didn't make a mistake. Should I send it back?

Agree with Jerry. You don't need 3.5" to get 35s under your JK. My 2014 has a 2.5" lift with 35s and I didn't have to deal with adjustable control arms, trackbars, etc.Didn't realize RC was considered "entry level," as I just ordered my 3.5 $529 kit for 35" tires.
