Default product question...

i was looking thru 4x4groupbuy.com and came across a 4.5 inch lift from zone offroad..and i was wondering if any one has had good or bad luck with this kit..i know its not a in your face name brand like RC,or Fabtech..

but it seems to be a pretty complete kit for the price..

any info and input would be nice..as im gonna be in the market for a kit here in the next month
