drop down brackets good?

The only lift I'm familiar with is the 4" superlift kit for 01+ 4x4 Rangers. It uses drop-down brackets for the torsion bars (and essentially the entire front suspension). I never worried that they would break, they were made with some very thick, very strong stuff.
Drop down brackets CAN be more vulnerable, or so it seems. In actuality they keep sit everything about the same height as it was stock, in a manner of speaking.
Is there a product in particular that you heard this about? We can probably answer your questions better if there's something in particular you're talking about. In general though, I've never heard of drop-down brackets breaking or anything of that sort.

well anything short of a lover travel i beam kit, will include drop down brackets.
superlift
procomp
skyjacker
rough country.
autofab, camburg, giant motorsports, and the very rare fabtech kits, are all custom beam kits. But you wallet wont like you for a long time if you choose one of those.

the strongest lifts that arent full long travel custom i-beam lifts are going to be skyjacker and james duff. those are the only two companies i would recommend getting for the TIB suspension if you dont want to drop 2 grand on camburg or fabtech. the skyjacker stage 2 with extended radius arms makes for a pretty decent travel lift.

yes, but he does not have a newer IFS suspension, he has a TIB suspension which all the kits you guys are talking about DO NOT APPLY to his truck. most of hte companies you are suggesting do not even make lift kits for rangers older than 98. for a lift kit for a TIB truck i would highly recommend only going with skyjacker or james duff unless it is only for show or unless it is a full replacement beam lift from camburg or fabtech or autofab (money money). most of the other companies that make lifts for the TIB are very poor quality for serious use. the skyjacker and james duff kits are built to be extremely heavy duty and tend to fit with the fewest modifications than the other companies.
