i feel sorry for the fool that buys that and thinks there ready to go. no mention of shocks or aarm issues. and they state they stuffed 33's on it. maybe, but they only drove straight. it looks kinda cheap. maybe im wrong.

Looks like an uber-cheap spacer setup.

I had purchased lift before and when I tried to put it on nothing would go together correctly up front. It would be a strong spacer lift if it was maybe a 2 inch lift but three is too much with whatever they have going on with it. They are horrible to deal with too, took forever to get my money back. Stay far away from them. If you want a decent spacer lift for mild offroading, go with rusty's and put some bump stops on.

06blueunlimited what were you thinking!? I'm guessing you this was pre-LOST or KJcountry. I would think the steel would rust as opposed to a poly or aluminum lift? I dont know, It's not worth the 10 dollars it cost to make/machine let alone 99

I like that 33's only require "minor" trimming. I had to cut the heck out of mine just to squeeze 265/75's.

in the last 12 months there's nothing negative.

95% happy customers sounds pretty good to me, you'll NEVER EVER EVER get that in any retail situation. Everybody that shops at Wal Mart dreads going there.

Go back and check the feedback dates as a seller. They have only gotten feedback on one item Sold since Jan. 06.

That is a great way to make yourself look good on Ebay. Rack up all good recent feedback by only completing positive buys. As a seller he sucks and that is where the negative feedback was from. Personally, My rule is I won't shop w/ an Ebay seller w/ less than 98%. I got burned once by a seller w/ just over 96% and they were a Power seller or some crap and they had a lot of good recent feedback then all of a sudden they screwed a whole bunch of people all at the same time. Never had a problem w/ any other seller since and I have over 100+ feedbacks buying and selling and all are positive.

Hey that IS quality - very mediocre quality, but still quality!

That's the problem with that word, so many people don't know what it really means. So sellers can say their part is QUALITY, but they don't mention what KIND of quality it is!

//didn't remember much except for the discussion of the word
///needs to make more money for mods on his KJ

Only problems I see is that the spacer's don't have an edge for the coil spring to lock in to, so your spacer would spin around and possibly come off...
