Is this kit any good or should I look elsewhere?

Else where......
like OME 927/948 combo with either OME or Bilstein shocks all around
many threads on them
Skyjackers have a very low spring rate anymore ( 310 for the front, same or less than stock)

pretty sure the jba25's are still the higher rate, about 15lbs over ome - only on the rear though, the fronts you'd have to go with 927s

yes the rears are OK if you buy them separate
but with their front setup and can only use their shocks, plus low spring rate its not a good kit at all or my two lousy dirty pennies its not! :-)r

Thanks guys, it looks like I'll go the OME route. This site is a wealth of great info.

The front struts and springs are weak, I had them and they held up om until I added the ARB and Winch, it sagged so much I would hit the brakes and almost scrap the ground. OME is the way to go, I'm still running the Skyjacker rear but that will be replace soon.
