Lots of people have had good luck with them, the one I put on my buddys was junk and the cross member bent on the first rock. We were told it was abused and wasn't covered by the warranty. He is on stock axles and 33s and is far from a hard wheeler.

i have the upgrade kit so same basic thing. i have no complaints with it and the cross member is hella beefy, i dont see it breaking unless your beating it to death. unless defective. there a good company with some bad products but they have great customer service and will replace pretty much any part that can be proven defective. i run alot of there pretty and love em.

There customer service hasnt been great to me, my shackles are still burried against the front of the mounts even after trying to flex the ****ty too short 4.5'' leaf packs.

when confronted rough country said "just drive it" I intend on talking to 'jason' as I hear he is the go to guy for issues.

I've ran a lot of their stuff. Liked it all. Great service with me. Shocks are their downfall I think. Good company overall if your on a budget
