3" lift kit, smart or not so smart idea....?

[VXorado]

So I thought I was looking into independent4x and realized that this was not the same lift kit I was looking at. The ones at indy4x are much more expensive and include the following:

OME progressive rate rear lift coils
Independent4x 1" Coil spring spacers
Rear 3 piece Extreme Duty adjustable link set
Full 5 piece extended length Braided steel brake line set
Heavy Duty front torsion Bar springs
Front Ball Joint Spacers with hardware
Low profile bumpstop kit
4 Ranch 9000 XL gas charged adjustable shocks
4 shock boots
Front & rear poly sway bar bushing sets
Independent4x rear lower coil spring retainers & hardware
Front HD tie rods
instructions
decal

Would I want to spend the $2500 on this kit, or should I try out the much cheaper Rocky-Road kit that possibly only includes just the shocks and springs?

This kit has a lot of really good lift parts, it's expensive but most of it's completely worth the price.

However, you still need a diff drop which isn't included in the lift kit. Even if you just start with new coil springs and torsion bar crank, get a front 2" diff drop. It's essential to keep the CVs in good condition.
