I installed an ironman 2" lift in mine just less then 2 years ago, ill admit the ride is very firm but for $900 or whever it was you cant complain.

Mine hasnt sagged much at all, i dont have steel bar or anything though..

I'm running 5 Rancho 5000 on my JK and quite happy with them it just depends on $$$$ and what you want there is a lot out there to choose from.

I know of a couple of KJs that have had pretty bad experiences with Ironman Suspension. I have had King Springs in previous rides and they were great.

As in similar posts. I got Ironman gear against the advice of fellow AJOR members. I too was on a budget so it made $$ sense. However I now find myself replacing most of it with quality gear. According to my tyre people the ironman shocks Ive got ruined $550 worth of new coopers. Might keep the back springs though as they seem to do the job ok. New ranchos are like a pillowtop matress compared to IM. Will replace the front springs soon.

Yeah... think ive made up my mind and am gonna go for the RE 3.5" Lift Kit...

Looks to be the best value for money so far. Stick some 31's under it, and that'll do me for the time being I think.

Were the ironman springs labelled side to side? I know with the king springs they are labelled rear drivers side and rear passengers side, etc. but my ironman springs weren't. Just wondering if I have my back springs around the wrong way...
