Was just looking at the rustys website and found there full kit the 6.5 one. seems like it comes with everything you need the lift tires and wheels. Has anyone ever bought this whole kit. At 2k seems like a great deal. Any one have anythughts on this

does it have long arms?... because you are going to want them eventually with that much lift. If you shop around you can probably pick up an equivalent or better of each part they have in the kit even from Rubicon Express for about the following prices- 4 bilstien 5100 shocks-300, coil springs-150, leafs-300, drop pitman-50, frame brace-70, track bar 100, brake lines 120, discos-100, total- 890. which means you are paying about 1200 for the tires and wheels which is not a bad price at all, and it makes it easy for you. But you could always buy the stuff on your own and get to choose the tires you want, or save money by buying cheaper tires/wheels or even find some deals on craigslist etc.

...I also just noticed that the kit doesn't come with control arms. Thats not good... throw in another 300+ for those, or 700 for long arms and also 500+ for an SYE kit

and I run about 5.5" of lift and run short arms also... long arms are my next planned upgrade though and would definitely make for a much better ride.
