definately a good longarm option for the price

a few years ago rough country was considered garbage by most, they have really stepped up their game lately, and ya can't beat the warranty!

I agree, when I lifted my first Jeep (a YJ) I used a Rough Country 4" lift. Looked great flexed like mad, but with in 6 months was flattened out to 2". Now just 4 years later I'm running a kit of there's on my XJ and loving it. Leaps and bounds better..

come to think of it. you might be right, IMHO i would say hold it out for a month or so, maybe even later.

But if you look it also has brackets that wrap around the sides of the frame rails..

As for wait and see how they hold up, knowing Rough Country's rep I'd just on one if I had the cash..

Anyone know any details about the joints at the crossmember? How about at the axle?
