Didn't mean it is literally junk; however, I've read more complaints about Rusty's customer service than any other company that is still open for business. To each their own. Run whatcha brung, hold m'beer and watch this!!

What I like most about our sport and jeeps is the hundreds of options and millions of combinations.

Edit: if you look through leveling kit threads you will see I have strong feelings against Tera flex and their advertising, even though I run their leveling kit. Their kit is good, but advert that you can run 34" tire is erroneous.

I try to call a spade a spade. Wanted to point out that just because something was "featured" on TV does not mean it is top notch, nor does it mean it is bottom of the barrell either. Do your homework.

FYI, with two or three guys 6 hours should be plenty of time.

I've had very good luck with the Rusty's kit and with their customer service as well. I have ordered quite a bit of stuff from them.

For the OP, I just got the basic kit, took about 3 hours to install. Only "trouble" I have had with it is the shock rubber flattened out on the bottom mount of the rear shocks. Talked to them and got an entire set of new ones for all 4 corners.

Looks great and that is what the crew is for, trying our best to answer questions. Crazy seeing the avatar of stock vs lifted.
How long did it take you?

Also thanks to all for the images as well. I like seeing your JK (trail or anywhere) looking so good.

You got it installed and that is what matters! Now you can help your friends put on most suspensions and that is cool. Congrats!
