I've got my 5.5" superlift waiting in the garage for when I can get a few days off to install it. It seems that I have read nothing but hate mail about any superlift product, mine is the superrunner with the radius arms. I'm nervous about the lifts reliability and am wondering if I made a big (very expensive) mistake. Should I sell my radius arms and buy the james duff arms instead, and would they work with the 5.5" kit??

P.S. I ordered the kit about 3 week ago and when i arrived it came with 118 springs!! I'm calling superlift tomarrow to see if they will exchange them for the 133.

P.P.S Does anyone have the most current model numbers for the drop brackets, I'd like to see what I have before I go to all the trouble to install it!

I have the Superlift kit with the extended radius arms and I really like it. So far I haven't had any trouble with it.
I have only been on one run with it, but we did do some local trails. It is really nice being able to go over a rock or log and you still set pretty straight in the cab. You can get a lot of twist with it.

Just make sure and keep a eye on it and tighten everything up after a few miles. I also put locktight on everything.
We are looking forward to doing more with it this spring.
You have to remember anytime you modify a vehicle you will work on them more then a stock one, but that is just part of the game.

Good luck and hope you enjoy it.
