I put the RC drop brackets on my '01 with a BDS 4.5" lift and they are great. I recently ran off a back road up here, hit something which brought me to an abrupt halt, and pretzeled the right side LCA mount on the LP Dana 30, bent the poo out of the axle end on the track bar when the axle moved, etc. The BDS control arms, and Rough Country drop brackets were unfazed buy the impact.
I was looking at getting a HP 30 and re-gearing so it all worked out!
