Default Skyjacker Budget Boost

So I bought a 2" Skyjacker budget boost a few weeks back and have been doing a little googling and it seems most people tend to warn to stay away from the skyjacker for some reason. Is there a specific reason as to why this bb is insuperior? I figured poly spacers are poly spacers. Do they wear differently?

I'm not going to be using skyjacker shocks. BTW.

Thanks!

I think most of the dislike for Skyjacker is in the lower priced suspensions. Basically the incomplete kits for the very low prices that leave people wondering why their Jeep rides so bad. Most manufacturers offer an entry level kit.

Budget boosts are all pretty much the same. At 2" you are at the limits before you start needing other things like trackbar brackets and such. I just did the Daystar 1.75 kit and I'm very satisfied.

A budget boost is a budget boost. I ran a 2.5 skyjacker BB w/ shocks on my TJ for years. No issues whatsoever.
