Pure Performance 4.0" X-factor Suspension Lift

stlavsa · July 9, 2008

Here is a link to the kit:

Basically its strut spacers, new A-arms, and 3" blocks for the rear, and it yields a 4" lift said the clear 33's.

Is this kit gonna mess up your axles? Any other opinions on it. Retail is $799.00

I feel like its missing the differential drop pieces...

A 4" lift for a 4x4 should definitely have differential drop spacers. Looks more like a 2wd lift to me.

for another $700 you can buy a real lift kit!!! I'd stay away from that kit for sure, looks cheezy to me. dang even the crappy Rough Country kit atleast came with diff drop brackets. save up and buy a real kit such as BDS, Fabtech, CST, Superlift, Skyjacker etc.

Topguncustomz has this listed on their website as a 3.5" lift kit for $224.00. It says in the description that drop brackets are not required on the new coilover suspension. I don't see how it is possible

YES this is the kit I am also looking at It is supposed to work and Rock krawler who makes this builds a hell of a kit. I orderd the 3.5 from top gun and those fools sent the wrong kit it has blocks and I need coils. Iam pissed of. Please let me know what you find out.

thanks

After getting burned by the 3" rough country lift I've learned not to try to take the cheap way out because from most of my experiences in the past it never works out for me and I always end up spending more money in the end. Save up and go with the CST 4" or a quality 6".

I agree with you about the money, but the thing that would piss me off even more is taking the time to uninstall a kit and reinstall another!

^^^^that would be fing bitter!

Trust me, I know all about being super pissed off about having to take the RC 3" kit off to install my BDS kit then having RC basically tell me shit happens. as much as I want to be mad at RC it's my fault for not going with my gut feeling and installing the 6" BDS kit like I wanted to from the get go. Live and Learn!!!

P.S. The good news is that the installation seems to go faster the second time around.

Silverbullet , That is is funniest thinh I have read in a long time. I am sorry that you got screwed on the RC lift when you talked to them did they act like they had all these engineers and that this was the first time something like this could and has happend.

Silverbullet...i cant decide between the bds and rancho lifts, any suggestions. i noticed that with the bds lift you are supposed to weld the cap on the bracket after cutting, do you have to do that because all other lift kits don't have you weld a cap on the the cut bracket.

The Rancho kit is awesome. I've never heard anything bad from the others that have it as well.

A 4" lift and no diff drops? HAHA. Death to your CV joints. I would think that it is for 2wd only, but it doesn't even state that. My opinion, stay away from that kit!
