| Love the one I have on my 2007. I ordered directly from CFM and had no problems with quality or installation. There has been some concern about the quality of kits that are sold on ebay that are not from CFM. | |

| I got mine off ebay and had to modify quite a bit. Well worth it though. Only got about 1 and 3/4 in lift, but that with 26in tire has worked out very well | |

| Most reviews I've read have been very good but I saw a pic the other day that was a bit concerning. Notice the crack in the corner. Just keep an eye on it. | |

| and that is why i don't like aluminum. Everyone says its as strong as steel but IT IS NOT. It cracks under stress easier and is more susceptible to cold and just doesn't have the strength. I will just build my own out of steel and have to live with the 1/4 lb difference | |

| I'm waiting on my cfm 2" bracket lift just hoping it works with my king coilovers so I can take out some preload for a softer ride. | |

| That looks like a hell of a lot harder to install than the other type of kits. You need to remove the spring from the shock...not the easiest task without the proper tools. | |

| the pucks work better for the sag in the rear.... if you can find some sport shocks and want to spend the money, you can adjust them to pick up the rear a bit more... or t rex shocks work good too.... that cfm lift is good but wears out.... Ive changed mine once cause the holes did that too..... buy the cheaper one in my book cause you could replace it in a later date..... | |

| finally got a chance to get the lift installed on the rhino in the rear. putting them on with a shop press really made it easy but once i took every thing off and looked at it i couldnt understand how they could call it a lift. all it does is stiffen up the spring so the suspension doesnt sag, guess i should of read the whole description when i got it but oh well it took the sag out of the rear anyway. it went from 14" to bottom frame to 14 1/4. | |

| 14 is really high for no lift. Is that measurement to the rear hitch? These typically sit around 12 inches to the rear hitch stock. I have my axles pitched to the point where they rub on the frame and I'm at 13.5 to the rear hitch and 14 everywhere else. I'm on 25" tire so if I went to a 27" I could get another inch. | |
