Their are other manufactures out there. I hated my skyjacker kit. Had to replace the shocks with in a year and broke a rear leaf. Not a very complete kit either.

I've had my kit for about two years now and still impressed.

i ordered a set of rear leaf spring bushings made by rubicon on monday and they have been delayed in co due to adverse weather cond. i have no idea when they will be here and my jeep is on jack stands with no bushings. so ive been trying to find them from other suppliers and have them overnighted because im tired of being without my ride but everyone ive talked to said they are discontinued at this point until further notice. so if anyone has any idea where i can score a set of rear shackle leaf spring bushings with these specs let me know im rideless at this point.

Damn... I was saving up for a 3.5" kit.
I've only heard great things about RE, but I mean, I'd hate to jump the gun and pick something up, only to have a fluke and not be covered by a warranty.

Any word on whether they're still honoring warranties? The blog post has an e-mail address for warranty issues...
