HAHA, don't tempt me. this should be my upper limit....Making me want to get some 40” ground hawgs!
Nice! Are you in Tracadie? We should meet up some time!Looking sharp!
Hatheway did mine on the Icon leveling kit last week.

This is what I did and I absolutely love it. Works and looks great in my opinion. Only difference is I got the maxlider kit that has the BDS arms.Good, bad or ugly… I’m gonna do the Zone 3”-4” lift, for the 37’s. It’s a cheap enough kit for me and utilizes mostly stock parts.![]()
I threw on the RC 2.5in lift kit last weekend. In their instruction guide, they left out the step for putting on some bushing spacers for their upper control arms. So, I left those off and drove for a day or two. The UCAs were popping and shifting in place. I ended up throwing my factory arms back on until I could figure out why they were causing an issue. Then, I found the 3.5in lift kit install guide, and it had the step about the spacers. So I reached out to RC, and they said yup, the spacers also need to go on these UCAs. They're sending me a new pair of UCAs in case the original ones got damaged without the spacers.I saw rough country has a 2.5” kit for Sasquatch but I know everyone bashes their quality lol. But it would be a cheap way to get 37”s on.
In Cape Breton, originally from Tracadie. But I'm around often and we sure should!Nice! Are you in Tracadie? We should meet up some time!
Looks good! I’ve been looking around a bit and I may go with the zone off-road 3” kit but I’m still considering this one as well. They are about the same price and I’ve seen a few people on here say the zone 3” was a good setup. Not in too much of a hurry yet lol I’ve already been spending wayyyy more then I plannedI threw on the RC 2.5in lift kit last weekend.

Overall, I'm pleased with the kit. It's an affordable option until I save up for a much nicer setup. I won't be doing any crazy offroading, but I wanted to add a little extra clearance. Once the 35's tread goes bad, I'll probably upgrade to some 37s too

The Zone off-road kit requires you to disassemble the strut to add spacers and washers. The RC kit doesn't have you disassemble anything. Instead, you place the spacer pucks on top with a bit of trimming of one of the top studs. This was why I went with the RC kit over Zone off-road.Looks good!

The UCAs in the RC kit comes with brand new ball joints, and RC installs them before shipping. The Zone off-road kit has you press out the factory ball joints from your factory UCA and press them into the Zone off-road UCAs.
I hear you on spending way more than planned. I think I've finally reached a stopping point, for now. We'll see how long that lasts!
Ok good to know. Leaning back towards rc now. That’s for the info!The Zone off-road kit requires you to disassemble the strut to add spacers and washers.

Oh he loves it! He's a great little partner to have.Great video. I especailly enjoyed the fact you used your son to check clearances and then in the rain to film. LOL. The bloopers was a good bonus too.
