well It's supposed to be a fraction of the cost of the superlift kit. On facebook I was told

"Things are a little busy! But we appreciate your interest. We do not have a release date set but we are hoping it will be soon. It takes a while to go from prototype to full production ready to ship. We will be a fraction of competitor's prices, definitely. January 10 at 1:58pm"



(I had originally emailed them a few weeks back but then just asked them on facebook to see if I'd get a quick reply then the email came yesterday The 15th)

from Todd Winchester

"We should be debuting that 6" kit by the first of febuary! as far as price rand I am not sure.
thanks"


so let's see how this ends up I hope to hear something next month.. it'd be great timing for my income taxes and my birthday in march I'll get myself some tires Lol...

I spoke to their live chat and they said price point of around 999.99 for the 6 inch lift kit and release date in about 2-4 weeks as of 3-15-2013. Keeping my fingers crossed they don't push that date back again.

If they said that in the vid, why haven't they told us that from the get go when we ask? Oh well... Maybe I can convince my wife that the extra 600 bucks is worth the extra 3.5 inches...
