rustys advanced kit
Looking for thoughts on rustys 3" advanced kit... i like that it comes with extended brak lines, adj tb, new upper and lower arms... any thoughts on if it would be better to piece it out instead...

After much research, I decided on that one. I've been happy with it so far, go for the hd springs. If I was pricing it out, I was staring down the 1k+ mark. It's a good deal for everything you get. Control arms and all. Rides nicer than sagging suspension. My only regret is that I went 3 instead of 4.5

I have the Rustys 3" basic full leaf/coil (HD)/shock/hardware pkg. and went with his HD Adj. U/LCA's with the Adj. Dbl. Shear Track Bar. I did have to use a TC drop kit on mine but no extended brake lines only relocate the mounting brackets for them. When I went to 4 1/2" of lift using this base kit for it then I used extended brake lines.
At 3" of lift with trimming I ran 33x12:50x15's on a 15x8" wheel with 3.75" of BS this is important for clearance a 4" is max. Here is an older photo of the Rustys 3" lift with those tires.
