Re: Lifted 9"
I'm not sure I can tell you the exact reason that these are bad lifts, but I had one and sold it to Seth Petruzelli (yes, the UFC fighter), and he had nothing but problems with it. I felt so bad. Thankfully, he's super nice and didn't kick my ass.
I have the Fabtech kit on my truck, and you can definitely tell the difference. And their customer service is terrible at best.

Re: Lifted 9"
A while back they had alot of there kits weld beads cracking under "stress" I even had a rep tell me one time that they were not meant to be used for serious off roading???? WHAT THE HELL IS THE POINT OF PUTTING A LIFT ON IT IF YOUR NOT WHEELING IT???
Go with bulletproof kit if your going big. They are by no means cheap but are well worth the spent coin!!!

Re: Lifted 9"
Bullet Proof has a good kit that can be brought easily back to factory specs (no need to cut diff mounts). The kit does need better instruction for installation though but I gave a call to them and everything was much clearer.

Re: Lifted 9"
Cognito is good to sorry for not mentioning them, and I do believe the kit already includes the steering support kit everyone here has bought which is excellent. I guess the difference between them is the price but it is only a mere couple difference. Given a choice I would go with the bullet but get a cognito steering kit with it.
