Rustys Strut spacer lift kit

Thinking about getting the 2.5" Rustys strut spacer lift kithttp://rustysoffroad.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=rustys&Product_Code=RK-BB20-KJ. Does anyone have any reviews about it, or does anyone have this installed? i have a 2005 kj Renegade that is stock right now, and im looking to lift it a bit, but not so much that i have to get expensive tires. Iv heard the shocks that come with it arn't the best. Anyone have any opinions, i don't have much money to spend at the moment also.

also heard that the daystar suspention lift is pretty good. http://www.suspensionconnection.com/cgi ... 16J1L.html.
not sure which to get

rusty's coils lift is good, but id go with OME coil lift most will tell you its one of the best if not the best but is about twice the spacer kit or more depending on what shock and struts u get

I have the rusty's spacer lift and I have had no problems with it. I really like the amount of lift I get for the amount of money it costs. But I am not really hittin the trails that hard. I go wheelin about once a week and they are very easy trails. I have 245/75/16's destination mts and dont rub much...well not enough for me to take apart the inner fender wells and cut anything out. I will say this if you do get the lift get different rear shocks the one that they send you are completely junk. mine were wore out with in the first 500 miles I bought monroe sensatracs and that was the best investment that I have ever done. My jeep is a 2004 with 104000 miles and the back sags a bit when I drive around but thats because of the worn out coils. Actually I have a few things that bother me about the lift ... rear coil bind ... but I live with them bc I cant afford a frankenlift. I have pics of my ride... here they are

i got the rustys spacer lift and for the money its pretty good. but u would want to get new struts cuz mine blew out within the first week of wheelin. so u mite be better off getting a spacer lift that comes with struts allready

Struts will blow out due to the design of the lift, 100s of threads on here discussing them, save your money and get a coil lift and be done with it, buy cheap you get cheap
