Does anybody know anything good or bad about this high steer kit and/or Rocky road outfitters. The kit sounds great but I've heard bad things about the company.

I really like the kit from them Once I go long arm I will probably buy that kit at the same time, But I will make sure they have one in stock first an drive 1 hour to their shop. I have heard that it takes them some time to ship parts

Everything I have heard about that kit is that it is poorly designed junk.

I used to have their control arm drop brackets which I actually liked the design of so I am not just ******* on the company but this steering just looks unsafe.

I have seen some pretty good reviews about them but most everything else sounds really bad. i'm just having a tough time finding a good steering system that is well planned out and a good design. I'd make it myself but when it comes to steering I'd really like to get a good product from a good company. that seems less and less likely the more I look into this stuff.

I had one not so favorable experience with them. And now that i know better ive noticed many of the claims about thier products and competitiors products are absolute bull****. That kit has a lot to it, and ive heard some horror stories about it. Seems complete to some people. Seems overcomplicated with many more parts to potentially fail to me.
