Shane Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 The Golden Rule-"You get what you paid for". I have not personally had experience with either, but alot of people here don't like rusty's stuff. My I add that opinion in this forum are highly repected by others and I am sure all of them has legitamate reasons. As for rough country, don't know don't want to know. Skyjacker has a nice 3' lift for basically $500. My advice, put the money asisde and save up for that. Like I say you get what you pay for.

BLHTAZ Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 I would stay away from both, but especially Rusty's...run far away from them. They have a bad reputation for poor quatlity product and customer service both. I have not owned there stuff, but have friends that do and they have had nothing but trouble. Springs sagging, control arms bending etc, etc... and Rusty's just gives them a run around about repalcing the parts. I don't know much about Rough Country other than as the others have already said...you get what you pay for. A good 3" kit should cost you in the neighborhood of $700 - $900. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pingpong Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 I have seen and owned both rough country and rusty's control arms. As far as I can tell they are exactly the same just painted different colors. No I didnt go out and buy the parts, but they were acquired from parts trucks, or running rigs I still own. I have a set of rough country coils in the front of the turd... and they are stiff as hell. Also ran a set of Rusty's coils in Pong. They flexed great, and had no unussual issues with them. I bought them used.. so I wasnt really going to be out much if they didnt perform the way I wanted them to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jared Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 i ran both rustys and rough country products on my xj and never had a problem, it rode smooth, thought they wer ok for the price. the only thing i didn't like was the track bar drop bracket for the frame, it was too thin and would flex enough to cuase death wobble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
