I have been using rustys products for over 20 years he was one of the first to make xj lifts and everything is made in the USA except the leaf springs which are made in canada. I read Old man emu springs are made in indonisia.

when I get to the lift, all my parts will be US or Canadian made. a lot of them will be from XJTalk vendors. Springs will be made here locally.

As you can tell mine wass done as a Bastard JY lift total cost $175. But I will put it up against any fully bought from one place kit.

I think you misunderstood the question Dalton I have had rat lifts before and nothin wrong with them at all. For me if it wasn't so much about money saved when you buy a "kit" I would have pieced my lift with ironman,deaver JKS doetschs ect. When kits come in complete packages you save a lot of money unless you craigslisted it piece by piece. My question should have read do you know what country your lift kit was made in. The question came to mind after seeing on another site how many so called american brands were made in foreign countries now. And damn it I still love america! and xjtalk

Mine was made in my shop. I do however have Japanese rear leaves in the bastard pack, RE front coils, bushings from 4WD, some American steel and Monroe shocks. So I can just say, assembled in the USA

I don't know where the bushing were made, but I can say their quality seems to be low.
