Well Randy, it's good stuff Airlift is. Just put the bags on mine and will be doing a compressor as well.

I wouldn't mind had they not told you, but since they did I do mind that part. Reality these days is that if it says made in USA, it's likely not. Still all overseas components, and only one thing has to be assembled here to be made in the USA. Even if it is just putting the label on...

I agree it sucks that they told you it was made in the USA and then you find that part of it was made in China. Would I return it all to over that. Nope.....Unfortunately you returning that due to that is going to change nothing. Be a PITA for you having to return all that stuff to reorder from a different company. My suggestion would be go stomp it off in the corner have a beer and install it on your truck and life goes on. I just ordered the same kit without the compressor myself. Looks like a great well built kit. I plan to do the compressor but that will be down the road someday.
