Default Arb 4 " suspension or not???

So my new rubicon isn't far off from arriving, so am looking at all the goodies available.
What are your thoughts on the arb 4" suspension kit.
I have decided to get arb front and rear bars so was thinking maybe I do the suspension as well. It seems a lot cheaper than the aev 3.5 kit.
What are people's thoughts on the two kits. I have had arb suspension on patrols and cruisers and always been really happy

I don't think they have a lift that high, at least not for JK.
Their suspension system for JK is not that complete. There are better alternatives. They do have a new shock thou. I have seen the actual shock itself. Looks promising but no idea how it perform yet.

I wheeled with a guy at LCMP in July and he had nothing but trouble with it as it did not have castor correction and also promoted the death wobbles and it was a shit ride (his words not mine) and he worked for ARB, he has since moved to a AEV kit (not sure which one)

They have a comprehensive 4 inch kit. They don't advertise it but if you ask they have it. Has all the bits and pieces to make it ride right. I just want to know more about people that have it
