I can answere that since I run zone products on mine. Zone off Road is the sister company to BDS suspension. All products are made in the USA. I have a lot of there suspension parts on mine, and Im very happy with them.

And if you order that one, dont do it on ebay. Go to there website so you get it straight from the company, and not second hand. Its the same price, and if theres a problem with it going straight to the company is easier. You can also get all the upgraded shocks with the kit on there website and not on ebay.

Ok.. cool. Thanks for the input.

I was curious about the rear blocks. do these kits have one block or do you add the block from the kit plus the stock block? Im confused.

Thanks

There are a number of folks making systems these days and many (like me) are name snobs so we stick with what we know or have heard of. Give the company a call and ask some questions. Many of the parts are made by only a few suppliers and then a company just sticks their name on them. I have run Pro Comp on all of my trucks and full size Bronco. Here is what a 6.5 lift on 37" looks like. This height is good for me and I also like the 4" lifts.

Just looked at there site, that has 3 inch blocks in the rear. So you will add those under the stock blocks. I dont run there rear blocks, and I want to say that when I was looking for some, theres were 2 3/4 wide instead of 3 like our stock blocks. Either way they wont hurt anything.

Zoneoffroad.com is there site. They dont have much for our years at the moment, but they are designing more. I just put the nitro shocks on mine cause I figured being higher and bigger tires those would be the best bet.

I dont run there 4 inch because I wasnt planning on going more than a leveling kit when I started. Things have changed but this is what im running.

Zone 2.5 leveling kit
Zone 1 inch shackle kit
Zone nitro 4 inch lift shocks front
Zone 3 inch lift shocks rear
3 inch Superlift rear blocks

This is how mine sits on 315x75x16, and looking at it and measuring I can fit more tire if I want to.

The leveling kit unlike the 4 inch kit comes with the adjustable trac bar hence why I went with them. Then after that it just wasnt enough.

I used a 4" lift kit from Pro-Comp that I bought off of Summitracing. Very good kit.
I Think it was this one Pro Comp Suspension Systems K4018B - Pro Comp Suspension Lift Kits - Application - SummitRacing.com

Also I feel a track bar drop bracket would be better then a longer track bar because the harder angle would exaggerate any bump steer. with a drop bracket the bar is closer to level.
