- doesn't impact neither handling nor performance.
- safe to drive in steep hills. Tires to handle sand at the beach
- looks cool
- No cutting or welding. complete package.
- up to $1k for lift, tires\wheels, shocks.

I'm in favor of Jakes long travel lift kit but some stated that it is not safe since the rear tires are narrower than the front. Please provide your recommendation. Thanks. (sorry for the long thread)

I have never felt nor noticed any stability concerns with the lift. I added 2" spacers to the rear for aesthetics so the width would match the front. I don't know anyone who has had the long travel not recommend it but I could be wrong. You will be hard pressed to have any negative feedback other than the cost. I ride around on 23" tires routinely with a full cart and have never had any concerns.

Good luck!
