Feel free to compare, I'm all ears....

I wouldn't lump Rize into the 4WP bin that's occupied by Pro Comp, Fabtech, Rancho, etc...

I'm not saying Rize is the better kit, but I would just like to see what makes the Spirson kit better.

RIZE is definately not on the same level as the 4WP "specails" if you will, but here are some reason why i put the spirson on such a pedestal

1- custom valved king coilovers specifically for dodge trucks
2- these kits have seen time out in the deesert and did stand their own
3- they out travel/flex the rize kit
4- almost complete replacement of stock steering for heavy duty steering system(crossover, heavy trac-bar etc)
5- this is a complete repalacement suspension, not just lif tcomponents that utilize stock parts as well
6- this kit fits bigger tires
7-conventional long arm setup

Have you thought about kore or chase 8" four link coil over systems? There around 5K But four link is the way to go with coil overs on all four.

where have you seen that?

kore doesnt have a coilover system. they just use fox shocks, and chase is one of their 3" lift mdoels

the only company i know of that makes a 4 link conversion for the back and front with coilovers and everything in ONE kit is kelderman, and they dont make it for the dodges

yea i like the pure performance kit a lot, the coil overs on all 4 corners is super sweet...
i know a buddy of mine was thinking about designing a pretty nice kit himself but is still debating if he wants to spend the time....itd be Coils on all 4 corners with 4 link so you dont have to spend the money on the coil overs...hes a do it yourselfer most the time...
straight axled chevy 15" of lift and 40s/22s for street 44tsls for mud

I haven't had a squeaking problem yet with my Spirson. Just curious as to what kind of grease is being used on your control arms. I use globs of anti seeze and have never had squeaks or premature wearing out of the joints. Just a thought.
