On my 2005 F250 I have the Zone 4" lift kit. I would check them out, I was looking at Icon, Zone, BDS, ect.
I would buy Zone again in heartbeat.
Zone is made in the USA.

The shocks that came with the kit don't do anything. Is that normal? they don't come up unless you pull them there is resistance going down but just stop when you stop pushing.

Yeah I called they said there oil filled shocks not what Im use to. First time for me but my experiences are about BMWs not trucks in general. This is day 2 about 6 hours or so its over 100 degrees aand I m moving slow.
