He can't... Search is BROKEN!

The first lift I had on mine was a Revtek. Not a bad lift, but for what you get, the Cornbred spacers are a better deal.

As was mentioned, with the kind of weight up front that you are talking about, better coils or coilovers will be a better bet. Once I put the ARB and winch on mine, the stock coils + Revtek combo sagged back down to stock height and I had some wicked coil bind.

ROB!!! You got your SAS done! (just noticed your avitar) Looks nice.....
So, corn is better than revtec? If I ever get around to doing anything to mine, I'll remember to check into them.

Cornhole's kit is better on all fronts. It's cheaper, is better quality, doesn't rust and has AAL's for the rear instead of nasty blocks.

coils

Sounds like with the revtek kit after a while I would be back where i started.I saw a set of 1.5 inch lift coil springs in Northwest off road catolog for 150.I also noticed downey off road has a coil over set with bilsteins thats adjustable.I just dont want to mess up the ride quality.Im not that interested in lifting it higher than stock.Just want it back level.Thanks for the info.

call ARB-USA and talk to them...they will tell you exactly what you need.

dont get spacers, youll kick yourself later.
