    Just wanted to provide an update to one of my earlier comments on this thread. I previously stated that my bds 2.5 lift kit with their base nitro shocks was riding a bit rougher than I expected. At the time of that posting I was running older tires that came on the Jeep when I bought it.

    I have since replaced the older tires with new BFGs and I have to say the ride is so much better! I’m very happy with the bds ride quality now.

    I thought it only fair to provide the other side of my comment.

    this is the greaseable kit: Heavy Duty Greasable Leaf Spring Shackle Kit (1/2" Lift)

    this is the non-greaseable kit (which I have):Heavy Duty Leaf Spring Shackle Kit (1/2" Lift)

    Available in both grey and gold. I don't think I bought them directly from Warrior - got them from one of the typical 4wd suppliers (I use 4wheelparts a lot as I don't have to pay shipping with a local store not far from me).
