Just installed lift... Questions

[Aaron2345]

So I just installed the rockfather lift from rro. Rear springs and shocks and front struts. Soooo. I couldn't get one side of the sway bar bolts in ( will have this taken care of). Also just A LOT of noise up front. I will be taking it to STS for an aligning and to double check my work. Do you think having them double check me will help with some of the noise up front? I got some good advice already that most of the noise will go away between 200-500 miles but for sense of security I feel like this is worth the money. Any personal issues with this lift and any other thoughts would be appreciated.

Which one of their lifts did you get?
If sway bar is loose then there is a lot of noise

The rockfather lift. Came with rear springs and shocks. Front springs and struts that I hat to build. Basically everything I needed to build it But you need your own spring seats from the original struts which is ******** lol.

Rockfather has a bunch of junk lifts which is why I ask
Some have spacer plates up front which can cause issues, some have OME springs front and their own brand in the rear
others who knows

It's all good now. I installed the strut bushings wrong. Doesn't help they only sent me 2 ****** washers that bent instantly. I'll be calling them tomorrow. Those 2 washers cost me over 500

I should have done some more research Turns out so far the kit is solid. Of course in only 100miles in. The 3 month wait and the $520 extra I had to spend to have the kit installed proPerly due to the ****** directions and a broken control arm spindle. also waited so long I changed from the front shocks that were "designed" for the kit to the kyb's the claimed to have on the shelf. Which took another 3 weeks to ship. The front shocks came with 4 bushings (2 Per side) but only 2 bushings which were garbage and had to be replaced after 2 miles Yes. 2 miles. As of now it tracks great. Rides great aside Tom the occasiOnal bang which I think is just the sway bar but may be the bottom of the strut hitting the inner fender well. After a little over 1300 bucks and breaking my ass so far so "good"

You could of had a Frankenlift for less cash expenditure.
Not to mention that it's a better lift kit.
