A good rule of thumb is the cheaper the cost of the lift kit the more problems you will have over time. Some problems such as wrong caster causing a darting effect on straight flat road or bad geometry causing bump steer which is darting left or right when going through a dip or over a hump at speed. The best lift has the most control arms, track bars, springs, brake lines and sway bar links. Do yourself a favor and save up enough money to buy a good quality lift and you will be happier in the long run. You probably won't be happy very long with a $600 lift. You will find yourself replacing it piece by piece with good quality adjustable parts that don't use cam bolts.
