I talked to them Saturday and they told me the new shipment of springs should be in within the Month. They are supposely replacing mine but we will see, but from what I was told the new ones arent released yet.

I just chatted with them tonight and they told me that issues was all taken care of. They are still sticking to their guns saying that brake line brackets and bump stop extension are not required for their lift. I am a rookie here and really am still learning. I just know they are telling me that I do not need those extra parts when most on here are saying I do. It has me a little concerned about them.

I have the RC 2.5 lift kit with 2.2 shocks.
"Bump stop extensions" are accomplished with stoppers on the shocks.
As for brake line brackets, I would disagree. I thought my rear brake lines were very taut at full flex. I made simple relocation brackets using stainless mending plates.

I bought the 2.5 with 2.2 shocks in March of this year and have had 0 problems with no sag.

The issue has been fixed and worked on but have they started sending the new lifts out? As of Saturday they said not yet, but I do know my rear springs top 3 or 4 or sitting on top of each other and feels like i have a steel bar welded from axle to shock mounts.

Hope they do fix mine because everyone at RC has been so helpful well except for one guy, but loved my lift before it sagged!

I dealt with Ben @ RC and he was great to work with. I am sure he could handle any of your questions.
