    What’s the best lift kit. I already have the old man emu 3” with 325.60R20 and I will like to upgrade only the suspension.

    what are the best one and I will like to make the upgrade with the reservoir.

    Do yourself a favor and search the forums! You just might find what you're looking for. "Best" is loaded with opinion. I don't think "best" is the same for everyone!

    @CaptainGrumpus gave a good answer too, and I have to agree with him. If I had the money to blow (and a reason to get them), I would probably go with Fox 2.5 myself. Maybe one day...

    I've never run Kings or ADS, but I have run the following, ranked in my opinion from worst to best.

    Worst: Toytec 2.5 w/ Boss rear + resis
    Average: Fat Bob's Garage Vated/Bilstein 5100
    Best: Fox 2.5 + resis

    I would encourage you to research the characteristics of all options you are considering, but this is my opinion. Extremely happy with my Fox setup.

    The Accutune article that @Bob_Wiley posted should help a lot but don't forget about ADS, they're seriously good.

    I have no personal experience but it seems that most have a low opinion of them.

    i'm also a fox fan. went with the ultimate kit through boss offroad. currently sitting at 4/2. i'd def recommend getting in touch with any vendor you choose and not just purchasing from a site. normally they can offer you a deal which may not be reflected online.

    height and ride are 100% adjustable. for ride, i can tune through hand turnable knobs...no tools. love that. rides awesome!

    thanks guys! one note, i live in mild weather in CA so the total chaos uca's are good for me. some that live in the rust belt or places that have a lot of debris, etc have said the ball joint design isn't great.

    The pro comp coilovers have worked great so far but there definitely not Fox. But for the what I do the pro comps are great for the money
