If you are thinking about purchasing a lift kit for your Jeep, you may be wondering what type of lift kit you should purchase. There are a lot of things that need to be looked at when choosing a suspension lift. Things like your personal preference, the type of off-roading you plan to do, and your driving style all play a role in finding Jeep Wrangler JK lift kits that will suit your needs.
Find a Good Balance and Prioritize
It is likely that you will fall into one of two categories of individuals who purchase first time lift kits. You will either want to spend as little money as possible or will be super enthusiastic and purchase more suspension than is realistically needed. The goal is to find a balance between the two.
Those who are looking to spend as little as possible on Jeep Wrangler JK lift kits and who are inexperienced often try to piece together random suspension components. This is likely to lead to poor performance and wasted money. On the other hand, buying too much can lead to difficulty handling the road or towing a trailer.
You may have to make some compromises when purchasing a lift kit. The first thing that you have to do is prioritize what you want. If you prefer slow speed trails and a smooth ride, you probably should go with soft-valved shocks and low spring rates. If you regularly tow a heavy trailer or you like to load your Jeep down with gear, firmer shocks and springs are usually the right choice.
