New lift on market?

I was searching around on the internet and i came across this lift on ebay from Doetsch... It says it can clear 37''s so that means i can easily run the 36's i want.. but i dont know anything about these ppl or their quality but the price doesnt seem too bad though...

Doestch makes quality products and has a great reputation so I'm sure this lift is no different.

With 6" the only way your gonna clear a 37" is if its a narrower 37". If you go wide you will be rubbing.

Is it just me or doesn't that seem like a really good price for whats included? I just don't know about clearing 37s on that kit with NO rubbing. .

I want to know if you can buy the rear ladder bars. .

He's referring to the angle of the CV joints. Those do look pretty severe. They should be closer to level.

Hey Tuspeeder205 My first lift on my 03 screw was the 4.5 lift from doestch.It came with spindles,coil spacer and blocks and was ok for a while and noticed that I couldnt keep the front end straight.From that the tires wore bad and I became unhappy with It and later found out that most shops say their junk.I just threw that out there for you to think about.

I swear I remember seeing that the kit is actually adjustable and those pictures are probally with the kit adjusted for more lift.
