Running the 4.5" premium. Overall I am happy with it. I have added adjustable track bars. Like any "kit" it's not really complete. Everyone is different and has their own preferences and will add pieces to fit their particular needs. It was fairly easy to install during a weekend

I ended up getting adjustable track bars, I plan on getting adjustable control arms as well. Other than that, I'm happy with the springs and shocks and the steering flip plus the rear track bar mount on the axle is pretty beefy. Handles great on road for the daily driver, and it flexes really good off road.

Is the adjustable trac bar really needed with the bracket? Also, the control arm brackets are suppose to take care of caster, so an adjustable control arm really isnt needed either... is it?
