Default Trailmaster 5" Lift?

Anyone heard, or know anything about this?

Here is what it says:
5" Suspension lift using new front coil springs and rear polyurethane spring spacers.
Retains factory control arms and track bars.
Complete with SSV shock absorbers.
Retain factory steering geometry.
I found it for sale at rocky mountain suspension for only $440

Anyone have any thoughts on this? I need to decided on a lift by June.

Hate for this to be my second post, but maybe it will help. I have zero experience with this particular TM lift, but I have run, and installed TM lifts in the past. They have been junk in my honest opinion. The one I installed on my Tahoe required me to add reinforcements to the drop brackets in the front, and almost all of the parts required modifying the mount holes, or trimming on every kit I work with (3 total). The last TM I worked with was about 2 years ago, so maybe they now have a better Q&A and R&D department.

edit: Forgot to mention, these were all IFS kits I installed. But I personally would still be hesitant to purchase from them again.
