Default RCD lift kit

Does anyone on this site have any experience with RCD, I hear it is a great system, but I would like some feedback on it. Especially have IFS, I am a little more cautious than I am with my 98 with straightaxle suspension.

RCD has a pretty darn good reputation, although I don't personally know of anybody with one of their lifts on a truck. I do know a couple of guys with RCD lifts on their Jeep Wranglers and none have any complaints. Added plus is they ship with Bilstein shocks.

Personally, I like Rancho in a 4" lift and Skyjacker in a 6" lift for a IFS truck. I like the idea of the full boxed "sub-frames" they use as opposed to a single or dual crossmember...

Yes, Rough Country and RCD are two different companies. Both are great quality, the RCD has more components (track bars, skidplate, etc.), and ships with custom app. Bilstein's so it is a little more expensive.
