Its a sister company of BDS...pretty much all the same parts. 100% made in America. I know 2 people who have the Zone lifts and love them. They arn't hardcore off-roaders but do a damn good job of lifted your JK for $500.

I am eyeballing this kit as well. 500 bux for shocks, springs, bumpstop extensions, rear trackbar relocation, rear sway bar links and front brake line relocation brackets doesn't sound to bad. Also being located in Canada means less shipping for those of us north of the border.

It is as tempting as the RC lifts.

It is a pretty good lift. I have been running it for almost a year now. No problems at all! Install was super easy. I don't do any rocks, mainly just trails and mud and the lift is perfect. For the price you can't argue!

No caster correction.

Read "what is caster? how much do I need?" in the suspension faq's.

And then do a search on the components that Zone suggests you use. (hint - in the Accessories area for that lift on their website)

I am going to say yes. I am waiting until the one year mark in a few weeks to measure where I am sitting. But from the time it was put on till now, the settle hasn't been anything drastic at all.
