Well, The dif drop Brackets look Okay.
Would there be a CopyRight infringement?
The Square spring spacers and Strut spacers look wierd.
Doesn't correct the rear dif or wheelbase either.
I (personnelly) would say thats about a $300 kit. TOPS.
Welds look like Boogers but I'm no Expert.
For a few bucks more. I'd buy the Calmini.
That may just be me tho.

Seems a little pricey for what you get.  No springs either.

 Nice square tube coil spacers!  ::)

$700 I think that there is a fair amount of profit margin! LOL

They say you get what you pay for but in this case there is no bang for the buck !!! I've just installed the Calmini 3" suspension lift on my 89 kick and it is top notch all the way .  Even those with limited mechanical skills could install this kit . As for the 3" body lift thats a different story . It is very cheesey and down right awful looking when installed . I'm very surprised that a company who builds top quality products would even sell this to the public . I will be making my own body lift using 2" solid aluminum round stock , drilled and tapped from each end so that it can be spun onto the stud bolts ( attached to the body ) and then bolted thru the frame support from the bottom .     Dennis
