Anyone know anything about this company or the product. I am ordering it just for the reason of checking it out and seeing if it is of good quality. a little bit of research. Not much of a price diff but it is a lil cheaper than some of the other brands and if it is good quality then it would be good for you guys to know for future ref.

 

ive heard of them. looks like a good product. let us know how they are. i was thinking about buying from them

 

I ordered one off of ebay last week and it just came it, its a very heavey solid peace of steel, i think its a good buy, i got the 3in leveling kit but i measured it and it only came out to be 2in tall,

 

did you write them and ask why its only 2"? ,maybe they sent the wrong one

 

Mine just came in. It is out in the truck and I do't want to get it to measure it tonight but I will tomorrow. I did inspect the welds, one of them looks amazing but the other has a few defects. air bubbles, looks as if it may of been hit twice over in a few spots. Not that bad for the price, ready to get the wheels and tires and put it all on now.

 

Please note: The 1-3/4" thick spacer gives you a total lift of 3". This is due to the fact that when you extend the
strut by 1-3/4" the strut assembly will rotate to a slightly steeper angle when reassembled. It is
the combination of extending the strut and the change in angle that gives the total lift. For the
same reason, the spacer in the 2-1/2" kit measures 1-5/8".

 

i have the 2.5 kit. seems great 2 me, cheaper than most, and heavy duty

 

Back from 2007!

 

I was wondering if anyone has some pics of the final results, as I am heavily considering this as the next step on my 08 stx 4x4

 

ya i just ordered the 3 inch to put on top of my 6 inch...i hope it works out well

 

Might want to check about adding 3" on top of a pro-comp lift. Might not be a good idea.

 

I have a Hell Bent Steel 3" kit on my '05 F150. It's a heavy-duty part. The welds are the best I've seen (I love stuff made in America) and I shopped around for several months before I bought. Their service and prices iare great too! However, you should never stack lift kits and spacers. Besides the obvious safety factors, you could do some serious damage to your truck. I'd do a bit more research before you try that.
