Who sells these bracket lifts? I'd be interested in the 2 or 3" lift. Welding or cutting isn't a problem. I see yall saying Smith, but I can't locate this dealer. Can anyone provide a link?

Thanks diver..

I'm about to change an axle. Do u think I need to upgrade axles for a 3" lift. I like srock axles because id rather snap a axle than the diff.. lol. But if the axle is gonna be angled for failure than ill upgrade. Sidebyside.com had some rugged axles (they stay out of stock) and Super ATV has rhinos which are probably overkill for differential. What are ur thoughts ?

My thoughts are-although most aftermarket axles are tougher, their biggest advantage is that the CV joint is designed to take more of an angle then many stock joints. With that in mind, IMO, CV joints that bind enough to break have to put terrible stresses on the differentials so having joints that don't tend to bind as easily should be better to have.

Yeah I feel the same way.. the only upgraded axles if seen were the rhinos @ $200per... (Super ATV). Ive searched the forum and havent seen anything else. Any recommendations?
