I bought the 4.5 RC kit and have had to replace the crappy flex joints with Johnny joints, the trac bar came apart, replaced it with the RE trac bar from Serious OffRoad.
The rear springs were to short so ended up replacing them with BDS 3 inch leafs and a 1.5 inch boomerang shackle.
The RC 4.5 lift kit is a total POS. I wouldn't install any RC products on any of my rigs even if they were free.

I installed the rc 4.5 sa lift on my jeep when I first got it. Worked fine on and off road and had no problems. Now I'm on full widths and still have the coils from that lift along with there shackle relocations and they suit me well. I mean the coils are the only thing left from the lift now but at the time it all worked good.
