In all fairness though, since my personal misfortune with them, I have heard that some of their products and customer service have improved.
RC makes good stuff. You do get what you pay but that depends on what you do and how you want to use the suspension. For light wheeling and cost RC is great. I have had RC, then Teraflex, then some Evo suspension on my Jk and they are have pros and cons. RC has wonderful or actually the best customer service out of the 3 in my experience

That's why I'm glad I got such a great deal on mine. If I didn't have the mechanical skills I do, then it would have put me in the red. Only thing It caused me was a headache and a sore neck from looking up all night while it was on the lift. Could have been worse just annoying still.

Default Mopar Stage 2; 2" Lift

Yeah, I actually lucked out at the dealer, Dave the mechanic has a lifted Jeep and has had lifted trucks his whole life,(a real gear-head), so we got to talking for awhile and I gave him my trust. After the install he walked it all down and showed me everything, so that was a nice gesture on his end. The Mopar Stage 2; 2" lift has the Fox Tuned Shocks and lifted the Jeep around 3". I'm very happy with it and I will be posting pics on my profile soon.
