How are Zone products vs RC?

 

Zone!

 

Zone vs Clayton? Because right now I'm leaning toward Clayton
Long arm and new full leaf (not aal garbage) 4.5" lift

 

Hah I've been bouncing between Zone, Rusty's and Rough Country and of course it seems hard to figure it out. Is Zone just better built?

 

Jeez if you got the extra 1k

 

Not 100% sure on the specs, but I have heard a couple bad things about rc and never a bad thing about zone. I'm sure rc is good too but I have zone and it is very good quality stuff, good prices, and I am very pleased with my lift.

 

Haha I'm working my *** off this summer to get that, tires, wheels, and a bunch of other stuff... you name it I'm getting it lol

 

How is the ride quality on and off road?

 

Well I got the 3" add a leaf. They didn't have the full packs for last summer. I took it on some trails, nothing too extreme, but it handled good, I would think that if I purchased new control arms and removed my sway bar, then I would probably get better flex. The add a leaf is pretty stiff on road, just as any other add a leaf is, but I personally like how it rides, afterall, it is a jeep.

 

i honestly love how my jeep rides. I dont think they make anything else besides a aal. it sucks because if they did i probably would get it. did you have to add a sye after you installed your lift?

 

No, they just added full leaf packs a few months ago, I didn't add a sye. I didn't really even have vibes. I had a very small almost unnoticeable vibe at 30-40 mph, so I put a 1" tcase drop on and haven't had any problems since then. If you plan on running larger tires, you may want to add a steering stabilizer to your purchase. Just ask Allen m, the vendor of this thread, to add the stabilizer.

 

I feel like ill probably get a zone kit. RC seems to have a lot of bad reviews . Zone is cheap and made in the USA. no full leafs on their site though??!!

 

Thats what im sayin, but they are out of stock right now, im pretty sure.

 

Good morning guys.

Yes they are out of stock on the full leaf packs. They are in transit. I can not speak to the quality or ride of RC. I can only speak about the R&D and testing that goes into the Zone products.

Zone Offroad is engineered and tested buy the same people that make BDS Suspension. They don't put as much effort into making the product as pretty as BDS (cleaning up radius' etc). They worked for almost two years to find the right spring rate and metalergy for the full leafs packs. They tested many pairs on their own rigs before they could find the right balance between ride quality, performance, and longevity.

It also took them a while to find the right manufacture for their springs. They are picky about the product they put out. Their coils go through massive amounts of testing as well.

If you are looking at Clayton and have the budget, YES, go for their product. There are others that are a better product than Zone as well. If you are looking for a well engineered suspension at a reasonable price point, that does not sacrifice on ride or quality for less money, then Zone is one of them.

I can not attest to the others.

Have a blessed and prosperous day!
