opinions on Rough Country products ??
I would like to know the opinions of people that have experience with Rough Country lift kits. Would be great if you have had more than one brand for comparison.
Quality product? Ride quality? Compared to Superlift and Skyjacker? Thanks.

I would say your Rough Country lift will be just fine.
Having lots of experience with lifts and installing them, here is my take on it all. Skyjacker in my experience is the best quality parts, components, directions, ride, and the best engineered..but you pay big dollars for it. TrailMaster, good ride, not impressed with performance off road, still pricy.. awesome shocks. Rancho....makes crap for show vehicles, but they do have good shocks! Superlift and RoughCountry make some really rough springs, but they tend to hold up well. They are probably the cost leader in the lift world, but they have good kits. I would avoid Rough Country shocks if you get the kit...get trail masters if you can. There are some off brands... jack-it, BDS (big dick's suspension...seriously...an engineer at trailmaster got pissed and formed his own company) and some others... and you have to be careful because some of this companies will buy other stuff (mainly superlift) and repaint them and sell the stuff to you. I had a dodge ram with a BDS kit on it and it was awesome. Trailmaster design with hardcore components. Never ever ever buy anything from Whiplash Suspension. They make crazy lifts (like 14-36 inches) but they are incredibly unsafe and may not even be in business anymore..they were sued repeatedly.
