thats their website. They seem to be more popular with the JK guys. The add-a-leaf will be stiff, and eventually sag. Its also in Canada. 590 canadian dollars shipped to your door = 489 US dollars. On Zones site you can order it for 495.99 with free shipping. So you can save 6 bux, but IMO you are better off getting a kit that comes with full leaves in the rear, or you could always make your own. HTH.

Kit looks like RC but shocks look like Ranchos. Everything seems to be re-badged.

Rancho and RC use the same shock, both built by Monroe......

Thanks Nick. I thought that the RC used OME shocks but I have never owned a set of OME shocks.

looks like a decent kit, it'd be nice to find a full leaf spring kit for it, it also has the option to add a steering stabilizer for 50 bucks. you think that would be a good idea? would it benefit enough?
