MCSS8541, just so you know, that is not a Skyjacker suspension system, at least the arms are not. Those appear to be Superlift radius arms. Skyjacker systems have 4 seperate replacement links.

Olyeir, I'm with you...sure looks like a Superlift to me. Superlift components are usually black or dark gray. Skyjacker has always used 4 links and is ALWAYS red out of the box.

Knowing what I know about 4Wp that wouldn't be the first time they "changed" a reciept.

Skyjacker is no longer red. They changed to black last year or the year before due to repeated customer request. My control arms are black as a matter of fact.

Now ya know why i'm much obliged to ya. Hell 6 shocks for a lifted vehicle, and that's just for the rear, will get expensive.
