Ive had RC lifts / control arms etc. on both my xj's for years and never had any issues. Even on some pretty tough trails the ride has been smooth and i have no complaints. And fyi, if someone has a vibration at 70-80 mph they should probably start with a wheel balance.. not replacing all the tires lol.

@@malachi9427 yea i saw the difference, still doesnt mean expensive is better... i have had expensive stuff break out of the box and inexpensive stuff last forever... also the kid was bitching about a spacer weld breaking... and by the looks of where it broke, it could have been the shop that put it on for the kid who did it, at that point i would have taken it up with the shop, or called rc... but a mall crawler like that wouldnt have broken that flange, improper installation would... the pricey one could have done the same if it was installed incorrectly, also if the lil kid would have talked to rough country they would have replaced it... also have you looked into each of the lifts at all? the rc (rough country) one gives shocks and every bolt you will need to put it together... the rl (readylift) doesnt include shocks, and gives you a cnc aluminimum front upper spacer... thats where the money your spending is going... in a cnc part... so again more expensive doesnt mean better... also do you have either one of these lifts? i have had both, but for a 2012 suburban, the ready lift doesnt give you anything but spacers, whereas the rc gives a front dif drop along with everything you need to make the lift work...

Garrett Owens aye man there probably not bad like u said but i would have to a little research and form my conclusion.. i think it also depends on the vehicle i was looking into a lift for a midsize truck the RC one wasn’t terrible it would definitely lift your truck up but thats about it. Compared to a BDS lift which was actually 2000 more which came with actual fox coilovers thiccer metal and a fairly easy install i guess it comes down to what your going to be doing with the truck

if the truck shakes between 70 and 80 that’s your wheels needing to be balanced more than likely. before telling someone that they should go spend a grand on a new set of tires to fix an issue that costs next to nothing, why not spend a couple of dollars and get the wheels balanced then see if it still shakes at 70 to 80 mph. think of how pissed you would be when you just dumped a grand on new tires just to find out the problem could be fixed in 15 minutes for 15$. there’s a shit ton of different things that could cause your vehicle to shake at that speed and almost never directly related to it being the brand of tire you have. could be a flat spot, could have snow or ice in the rim (if you live in a state with a lot of snow that is), or even mud packed in the rim will cause your car to shake due to those things making the wheels unbalanced.

However after alignment everything seems just fine. I did a 1 inch lift block in the back so when the gooseneck is on everything is level. 🤔 original wheels and tires. Just added a little toughness to the set up.😄

Have a old rough country lift kit on my 98 k1500. And man talk about taking abuse all my trucks i dont pamper i beat them to the ground. Engine/transmission till they break. Anyway that rough country lift all i did was replace the shocks and balljoints. Talk about quality. And ive jumped and landed nose first in that 98 and suspension was fine. Tire blew out but that was a junk nitto mud grappler so it was okay.

I’ve got a 3.5 RC lift kit (with drop arm plates included) on my 2018 jku with 35/12.5/15 tires and it rides better than factory. I installed it myself. I’ve installed MANY different lifts and drop kits on lots of vehicles then doing alignments to them. The INSTALLER is the primary issue when you have problems with a lift/lower kits. READ THE DAMN INSTRUCTIONS. Always inspect all parts before starting the installation. Any defects should be caught and handled before the install begins. Never use “spring spacers” always get a kit with real springs. Also if you have an IFS truck, your kit will bet giraffe pussy high in cost.

Honestly I think it may depend on the vehicle and the type of suspension you have I have all leaf suspension and my rough country lift fits great and rides better but I was dissatisfied when I was sent the wrong rear bolts for the springs but other than that I would give them 4.5 stars

Welds could have broken when the studs were improperly pressed in as well. Funny how most shops blame the manufacturer first, you guys properly sold him the RC lift, then up charged him for the new lift kit since he was already stuck with the new wheels and tires, and needed the lift to get his truck back. This is why I do all my own work!

Gm Trucks - No, you're confused here. I said you get what you pay for and for the money (which is 1/2 to 1/3 the cost of a fully built Kelderman lift, Wicked Customs lift, Bulletproof lift, Carli lift, or any custom lift, BDS performs great. Why would you think a $5,000 lift would be as good as a $10,000 or $15,000 lift? Like I said, you get what you pay for. Also, there's nothing "cookie cutter" about BDS lifts. Their lifts are built to retain stock geometries and are fully warrantied. You break anything and it's replaced, no questions asked.

To defend Rough country a little, any lift can fail and everyone knows that rc is THE cheap lift, of course the quality won’t be as good but they’re selling to the target group of people (like myself) that just can’t drop 2k on a lift or 800 for that matter. They’ve tested they’re stuff, there’s no one person at RC that needs to “get their stuff together” because they already do, NOBODY in the automotive industry manufactures products on a whim not caring about the safety of their consumers, they’re all held to strict testing by the dot. You can draw the same comparison from tobacco brands. Yeah, longhorn and Timberwolf are some super cheap brands that just can’t be compared to Copenhagen but all three of them get the job done in the end, it just depends on how much money you wanna spend and some people don’t have the luxury to chose how much that is that particular week

I've had numerous customers who are tried and true fans of Ready Lift, complain of Ball Joints going out after 6k or less miles. I've had it happen on a truck of mine as well. I've got a Brand New 6" Rough Country, Vertex with Coils and Reservoirs on my 2017 F150 and I'll bet you it rides just as good/smooth if not better, than any company out there, charging ass loads of money, on a name because it has BDS or FOX written on it. Ready Lift is trash. Every company has bad apples ever so often.

I got a 2006 ford f150 4x4 super crew. I used 3in freedom off-road front lift struts and added a 1/2 lift spacer on top of that for a total of 3.5 inches of lift in the front and installed freedom off-road 2-4 inch lift UCA's, 4inch lift blocks with bump stops in back with BDS fox 2-4 lift shocks. Looks amazing, rides like stock, and nobody can tell it's not a complete 4in lift. Unless you look under the front at the cross members, which are bone stock. I didn't want to cut on my cross member mounts. I was working on a budget, I bought a piece at a time. Never had a problem yet.

The rough country stuff is fine, I've seen the expensive kits fail as well. Both my trucks have rough country lifts, and they ride a little stiff. If ride quality or fuel mileage is a concern, then a truck isn't for you. They're meant to work hard, not be pavement princess's like you mall crawlers do. That green dodge has never seen dirt, its way to clean. If you need a 3000 dollar set of rims and 2k worth of tires to go offroad, it's not the equipment. It's your lack of ability to drive at that point. Mickey Thompson 35X12.50s on 15 inch rims and a 6 inch lift, I can go just about anywhere anyone else can with half the money in my rig.
