Default Large Lift (evil twin suspension)

Just posted a thread on my spacers but on down the road i want around 10 inches and am lookin at evil twin's 10 inch system. Wondered if anyone had any expirence with them and would like your 2 cents. I have heard full throttle is horrible and doesnt even send all the parts from what ive have heard. thankyou for your imput.

Ya I'd like ten inches, too, but I just don't think the **** industry is ready for me...

Sorry, I'm bored. I personally think it's overkill, but in the back of my mind I think about how awesome it would be...

yea it would be awesome, but not only would you have to pay a sh*t ton of money for the kit itself, you'd need to get a new driveshaft(which i think you need a new one after 5" anyway). what all does the kit come with?

That pretty much boils down to what each kit comes with, but there is no real pics of the components. I am interested in seeing how beefy and well built the lift is, but they don't have pics.

the kit comes with 10" Front Coil Springs, 8" Rear Leaf Springs, Long upper and lower arms, Arm bracketry, Adjustable Trac Bar and Shocks.
i would need drive shafts and probly extend brake lines as well as 4wd shift linkage but would install myself the lift is $2800 but like i said i dont know anyone who has had any expirence with them and i also have to factor in tires and gears

for a drive shaft, id ditch the factory slip yolk, and put an advanced adapters SYE in, along with a Tom Woods drive shaft with a double cardan upper joint

Ok I think i'm a little nuts for dropping money on a lift and possibly a new track bar. Which is going to be around 600. But 2800??? Man I think its to much. They don't event have picks of the lift compents. I don't like to buy something tht I can't see.
