benn running it for 3 years.....warranty my ass!! theair disconects sucked ass! (went with JKS ) and the front needed a 1 inch spacer to compensate for the sagging front springs, after i contacted thier customer service they told me to buy their 4 inch front springs to compensate for the sagging 3 inches what a load of crap! as for performance runs very well ( if you DO NOT USE the cam bolts) DO NOT DO NOT DO NOT DO NOT use the cam bolts!!! i cant stress that enough great flex off road, godd manners on road....but this is after i fixed everything wrong with their lift.... added front lower adj control arms and better discos.. brake line exten. adj rear track bar i know htey are a good price but go with TERA FLEX

I have been saying nothing but good things about bds but just last week I started having trouble with my track bar. the ruber gromets in it are more like plastic and are already wearing out. i have 7k on my jeep!!!!!! what good is a warranty if you have to replace a part every 6-7k bought a TF replacemnet and will be upgrading to a TF or Rock Krawler lift soon!!!!

if you just plan on mall crawlin it would problably be a good lift because it rides very good.

what problems did you have with the cam bolts. I have 15000k on mine and no problems yet.

I can't complain about my BDS budget boost. I heard that their coils are not that great. I had FANTASTIC results with a 3" BDS on my old cherokee.

However, if you really want to get a 3" lift, I would go with teraflex or OME.

the cam bolts never stayed "true" every time i wheeled the tabs for the cams just were not big enough to hold the cams in place. It had gotten so bad that the axles was actyally shifting inside the cut out slots. before i replaced the lower control arm brackets, i looked at them and noticed the tabs were FLAT and there was nothing there to hold cams in place.. I cant say the cam bolts are a bad design because my TJ is fine with them; howver, i will say the control arm bracket on the JK is a horrible design and is not good for cam bolt use. On the up side I now have RocKrawler lower control arm mounting bracket that are pretty much bomb proof
