I have the 3" BDS lift with 35" MTZ's and am very happy with it.
I went with the steering stabilizer upgrade and the gas shocks. The gas shocks are fairly stiff if that suits you. I would recommend the steering stabilizer.

Just got mine put on. Drives great like it better than the 4 in superlift i had. Mine is a little bigger than three but i am sure it will ride just as good. Here is a pic.

went into the local 4x4 shop today to get a pricing on a 3" lift kits, 17x9 pro comp wheels, and 35" toyo mt's. i told him i was thinking about the full traction economy kit to start out with but he recommended the bds lift to me. i havent heard much about this kit but a guy that was in there told me he just got his 07 done with this kit by this guy and he loves it. for everything including labor he quoted me $3319.48 and says he can have it done in 4 hours including a wheel alignment. would this be worth the cost???
Labor should be about 8 hrs only max
But it also depends on your tire and wheel combo .
You could easily do the lift yourself ...and youll feel alot better about it

Go to bds and order direct they are way cheaper. I bought mine from them I loved dealing with them took care of me and sent me a pm on another forum thanking me for buying from them.

a freind had 10 yr old BDS springs and they sagged... got in contact with BDS and they said, "bring them to you nearest retailer and grab some new ones"
10 YEARS LATER!!!... can beat that with a stick. from what i have seen they seem to be a decent lift. one shop up my way swears buy them

I have a 2" BDS Budget Boost lift. I got a package that included shocks, steering stabilizer. So far all of my mods for lifts and swaybar disco's are BDS. I too was sold on the lifetime warranty, no problems so far.... I also had tires put on at the same time, Procomp all terrains 33X12.50X17 and the toal price for every thing was about $2100 installed..... Good luck!!!
