    I only need 2 inches of lift to clear my tires so im thinking the 5100s with ome coils will be fine

    That's a solid setup for an affordable suspension lift, like others have stated a kit like this won't be rebuildable but you can buy this kit 2 or 3 times before you reach the cost of rebuildable performance coilovers. I ran 5100s with OME 881 coilovers for a couple years before switching to Kings and it treated me well, I couldn't quite keep up on higher speed trails like others could with more expensive setups but it never prevented me from doing the things I wanted to do, and it rode a lot better that stock.

    I think they're more expensive than that now. I got my extended travel Kings for ~$950 (from downsouthmotorsports), but they're a little over $1200 now.
