Don't forget about the liquid iron industry variety...

Does their website suck? Ive looked around on that website for long periods of time and never found those. Only found the slider boxes but never got an answer to my question on those

That design seems easy enough to copy, if I have to relocate I think I'll build mine similar to that. I'm just not sure how much stuff should be bolted onto the hitch mounts, so far it'd be the relocation brackets and the bumper, unless I integrated the 2 which seems kinda silly to me

It was on their FB page I got it from.

They all look the same to me. All of them are in the same price range 109-149

The RC ones seem to be the best of everything. More positions of adjustment and ease of installation

had the same problem with mine. i have rusts 6 inch springs my shackles where at that angle with stock shackles and hitting the body with even 3 people in the jeep. i was gonna buy bomerange shackles but didnt want anymore lift.sooooo i took a 2inch lift shackle cut it about an inch down and folded it almost 90degres and welded it there. and it still lifted the back up about 1.5 inchs so i took the leaf pack apart and took out the 3rd leaf down. it made it ride a lot softer and keep the shackle angle really good and flexes nice.
