Anybody ever get there 4 inch suspension lift? Im gonna be purchasing a lift soon and this one looks to be good. Im getting it with rear springs. Is it worth it?

the standard responses are "you get what you pay for"

and "it takes some work to make the brackets fit."

it is a good deal though IMO

I ran mine for about a year, and loved it. Took no "work" to get the brackets to fit, the lined up beautifully. The ride is a little stiff, but its not bad at all.

Mine had rear blocks, and I think youre going the right route with the full rear springs. More expensive, but itll ride & handle better.

I actully have pulled off the entire kit except the radius drop brackets & shocks, and will be selling it once I do.

But yea, great kit, especially for the price.

For all of you with it the rough country kit. I am looking to get it also but am weary about it. How does it ride with 33's? I am not getting the new leafs just the blocks. Will it ride harder than stock? am i going to need any additional things to make it work? How are the 8000 series shocks that come with it? any info is awesome thanks

I had rubbing issues with 33"s. If you drive only onroad, then no issues if you dont mind the occasional rub.

But if you head offroad at all, stich with 31's.

du510 now you got me all screwed up. I was gonna go with just a 2" lift and 31"s but i want more. Now your telling me that even with this lift i will still rub 33"s. Where does the rubbing occur? Is it fixable with trimming of something?

Im not saying you will rub, I am only saying I did rub. It was not very serious, just some noise when turning & going over any bumps at the same time.

Minor trimming would take care of it.

But, I am a bigger fan of lifting higher than trimming the body.
