For $900 for a 6" I would do it. I bought mine for $1500 +$300 shipping and have yet to install it.

Alot of people on here will say not to go with rough country but in my honest opinion I see nothing wrong with their lifts. I have a 4 inch RC lift on my 2o12 ram and I know alot of other people who also have RC lifts with no issues. There not the top of the line nor the bottom but for the price it's a decent lift.

Is your ride quality the same as stock at lease

I had rough country on a jeep and ride quality wasn't that great. I would suggest lift spindles from maxtrac. There suspension has my truck riding better than stock and I'm lifted 7 inches. You wouldn't tell you were in a lifted truck. Just my opinion.

My ride quality is great with a rc lift. You can't compare a jeep to a ram 1500 anyway for ride quality with a lift kit.

Sure there are better lifts out there, but I have been happy with my 6" RC lift

Can I get belstein shocks and would that help or not worth it to add on the rc lift ?

I had both RCX and BDS lifts. I've had no problems with either lift for daily driving. I don't offroad so I can't comment on that aspect of the lifts. If you buy the RCX I would take your savings and get some better shocks and a panhard bar relocation bracket from Superlift, Zone or BDS. The Zone or BDS is easier to install since it mounts to the rear axle.

Despite what comments follow from the zone and bds fanboys , RC is a good lift and for that price I'd jump all over it without hesitation. Is it a rough ride? To me, yes. A little bit but it's a lifted truck. Who cares.

Glad to see owners that have actually used the kit give their honest opinion and not give criticism on the kit from only what they have heard or read.

People who criticize (give their opinions) without having used a product usually do so because of what they've read or heard from people who did use the product. Nobody in their right mind would buy a product to try for themselves if all they'd read were negative reviews about it. I'm not saying RC is or isn't a bad product (the reviews I've read are about 50/50) but wouldn't spend my $$ on it based on what I've read. I'd rather save and spend a little more on products that consistently get good reviews.
Also, I have a Superlift and with the Bilstein shocks it came with it is every bit as comfortable as the factory suspension.

What is a panhard bar relocation bracket ?

The panhard bar aka track bar is the bar right above that sexy Hellwing sway bar of yours It should preferably be almost level with your rear sway bar.

Edit : There is a picture of it on the Superlift install PDF on p. 15 rear install section. BDS has a picture of it on p. 7 figure 6a and 6b of the rear install. I likes the Superlift bracket better but it was a little hard to get a drill in that location. If I had a right angle drill it would've been a piece of cake. But if you have an aftermarket differential cover the BDS bracket is nice because it moves the lower panhard mounting point up to allow for more clearance for the differential cover.

Wait, is your brother in law also related to me, hint hint hint?
