Default Bulletproof suspensions

Was reading up on them, saw a 10" and a 12" for a 2wd. Do they have anymore, and anyone have these or heard anything about them?

I bet that is just for the bone stock that is shown. If you notice to the left of the page, "Options" are Shocks and Leaf Springs. I bet this kit tops out @ 4500 when those are added.

To do a 12" lift RIGHT, I would bet by the time your done you will have 8 - 10K or even more in it. There's a ton of stuff that goes along with a lift that high other than the basic lift components.

Such as? Why state something and not give a few points. Had you looked at the kit also? Was anything missing that should be there for high lifts?

bulletproof, whiplash, and full throttle suspensions are all junk. they fall apart on the road and don't even think about leaving it...

Being a Susp. Lift guru of sorts, any suggestion for us 2WD guys that want more than the standard 6"? I found a 7" CST but nothing more. I'd like to get atleast an 8" so w/ my body lift I'd have an equal 9" 4wd lift, know what I mean. Thanks!
