Anyone running the BDS 8" Lift? Pictures and Info Please

Does anyone have any experience with the BDS 8" Lift?? Or pictures of it installed other than what is on their website? Doesn't look like it uses any type of spacers at all from what I can tell. Might be a bit pricey but just curious if anyone has seen or installed this kit yet?

it looks like spacers in the picture. for an 8" kit i would say just stick with rize especially since you can get it cheaper.

Every review/test I've seen on a BDS lift I've read says they make an excellent product.

I haven't installed this particular lift but every jeep I do gets BDS because of the quality and no fine print warranty. I have put the F150 BDS rear springs on a lot of F150's because they're the only ones who make them. Looking at the kit it does come with new front shocks which is a nice and it also comes with the rear system which Rize doesn't. If it was my personal truck I would easily pick BDS over Rize. I don't think one will have a better quality than the other but the warranty is a huge plus for BDS.

im running a bds. but only a 6". but i have no complaints with it. rides incredible. i thought it drove just as good as stock. truck really has no body roll compared to the other lifted trucks i have been in. the warranty for bds is great. thats a big plus on why i got it. but as others have said for an 8" id go with rize unless you get a incredible deal on the bds.

Looks nice, but more than I'd pay for what it is. Rize has a great kit.
