I have the Rusty's strut plates, plus a clevis lift, with the lift listed in my sig. I've only had this lift on for 3 months / 2,000 miles but have had no problems to date.

Don't know which is better, but if your lift is arleady installed I'd assume the clevis lift is much easier to do.

I have the strut plates and a clevis lift also. This is on top of my Rusty 2.5" coil lift. My springs really sagged.

I have rusty's strut plates and they seem to be fine, no problems as of yet. They do take a bit of time to install( took me an hour and a half) and i had to drill out the holes in the plate so they would line up with my strut bolts which seemed kinda weird but didn't take anytime to do. A clevis lift would be just as easy i assume , if not easier! Also you can do a clevis lift without having to fork out the $30 for the strut plate!!

I was thinking of getting them after i installed my lift because the front was settling faster than the rear. I did the rusty's coil lift with 3/ring clevis and extra isolator in the rear. Seems to sit pretty level now. Might add these and another isolator to the rear.
