Default Skyjacker 4" long arm kit

Yeah +1 on that. The kit looks like a box of crap parts that are not engineered to work at all. I can only guess that the bushing would eat away quickly from the binding due to long lowers and very short uppers.

To the OP do yourself a favor and get a quality lift that has been engineered to work and is complete with high quality parts, wether it be Full Traction, Teraflex, Rock Krawler or a few others. You'd get a much better ride quality and more, better flex from a high quality short arm kit.
