do a search on broken trackbar brackets or skyjacker lifts, you'll see which one I would cross off that list real fast

now that's funny

There are alot of lifts out there, it depends on how much wheelin you are going to do and how much $$ you are willing to spend. give us something to go on. Anyone of these lifts might be just what you are looking for or need for what you are planning to do.

My vote would be Rusty's, it's the only one with front and rear adjustable trac bars. I personally would not even step inside a vehicle equipped with the track bar brackets skyjacker and zone offer. I highly recommend you take a look at superlift, full traction, teraflex or rough country....you literally chose the most incomplete 'kits' on the market to compare lol. What are you doing for control arms? Non of these kits address pinion or caster angle and with 3+ inches of height you you'd probably want to look into it.

hhhheeeeyyyyyyyyyy...easy there...YOU'VE seen me wheel with my zone 3"...to the OP i have the zone 3" kit and ONLY went w/ this kit b/c of my financial situation at that time....i love the ride(soft) and it has done nothing but great for me on and off road...i have had no issues with the rear track bar bracket as of yet,but in all honesty any track bar bracket w/out adj. track bars is bound to fail at some point anyway b/c of the crappy stock bracket imo...the only downfall to this kit that i have is that after the springs have settled it has net me 2.75".....but in that aspect you get what you pay for...so no i would not "punch myself in the nutts" for buying this kit...if i were to do it all over again i would have saved the cash up and bought the teraflex 3" but i didn't so i'm content for now......sorry just had to vent for a sec....
