quicky little lift question

i have been doing a ton of research on what to do with the ol red, i have decided on doing a 4 inch lift the right way. i really would like the easiest install too. so far for a 4 inch lift i need the extended rad arms or drop brackets (I know extended rad arms will give me better articulation but im not going to be rock crawling), and pitman arm along with the coils and rear springs. its up to which kit now. im a young buck and don't really care about ride quality, and i just plan on being a weekend warrior down minor trails. i was thinking about this tuff country kit,

Super lift or that trail master lift are good, run away from tough or rough country (same company) the lift is junk.

If I had the choice, I'd wait for the shop, tools, etc. You never know.

If i could go back and get a different lift i would probably get one of these. Autofab does good work. Just my opinion.
