Yes, that is a good kit. Thats the kind I got, all the stuff worked great but the steering extension didnt fit at the bottom of the steering shaft. I guess they didnt machine enough off or somthing, fit at the top fine though

But I wouldnt buy it for that price. I remember seeing it in the us for like 100 bucks or so. I know mine cost me around 140 with taxes in from a local parts store.

Yes it has everything you "need" but there are a few things you will have to "fix" yourself.

1. your shifter will probibly need to be bent or your floor noched a little.
2. mine didnt come with fuel filler neck extensions and mine is leaking a little.
3.your rear bumper will hang down along with your spare.

I torched out my spare and a custom bumper is on the way

I can only think of 1 downside to a body lift.

Aftermarket bumpers dont fit, so you need to go custom.

Well to extend the fuel filler you just need a peice of rubber hose the same size, and you clamp it into place. No biggie, I jut havent gotten down to doign it yet, it only leaks a drop or two while filling up.

IF you can make your own bumper brackets then you dont have to worry about your rear bumper hanging down

I would go with the PA kit, they sell thousands of them I know a few people who have gotten them, great kit for the price.

I can't say anything about the RB kit, but from what everyone says, they are good.

bumper rise brackets should be easy. seen them on the front, its just a square with stock holes below and new raised holes above. bolt that to the frame. and the bumper to it. back would probably work the same.
