Hey Guys,
I have finally made it past my sons 3rd birthday which means I can now go nuts on building up my JK. The only issue facing me right now is which suspension kit best suites the JK's in Australia and where can I find a good suspension specialist in Sydney to put it in?
Cheers
Slats

A bit more info would help
Is it CRD or V6
2 or 4 door
What othe mods do you have
What size tyres now or in the future
What is the intended use( a weekend toy needs a different setup to an outback tourer)
What is your budget.

If you Get the gear from Bill at DBOR (Who is great before during and after in service) Give Chris a call at Mr Spares (http://www.mrspares.com/parts/)for install. He helped on mine and will give you a fair price.

Hey greenjk,
Here are the details you asked for.
I have a 2008 JK Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon
The car is currently stock
I want to put 35" tyres on
This car is a daily driver but I also want to play around on the weekends
Budget is 10K

Hey Fella,
my JK 2010 is my Daily Driver... for me I love the Teraflex and Elka combo... it offers an awesome ride... Elka are not cheap though, but worth every dollar... they are "softer" than the FOX and perform just as well.
have a look at jk-forum.com and do some research there as well if you wish...
I run the 3" lift with 33's and run a Superchip programmer... it work's well and I think its a great combination, although with 35's you will also want to look at re-gearing to maybe 4.56 (usa guys will tell you 4.88 or 5.13) I believe the 5.13 break pinions if your not careful but 4.88 are fine.
My recommendation (as its what I run and I did about 6 months reading before deciding) is the Teraflex gear... http://www.teraflex.biz/
Remember to buy local, it ensures you get the kit for RHD (all teraflex kits are LHD AND RHD) and of course local warranty as well, local guys MAY NOT support overseas sourced gear...
http://www.sbroffroad.com.au/index.php?route=product/category&path=50&page=2 is some Teraflex kits.
Good Luck and ENJOY!!
