Both lifts cost about the same at approximately 3500$. Which is the better lift and why?

Carli would be the answer to this.

Like the above guys have posted, Carli spends way more time in suspension tuning than any other manufacturer out there.

Can you post a link to the Readylift kit for more specifics? I can't find it on their website for some reason.

Every person here said Carli and you are still talking about ready lift...

Thanks for the link! I don't like to comment on things like this too much until I can compare apples to apples.

Based on that I would say that a Carli 4.5" Starter kit is more comparable to the Ready Lift kit. The Carli kit is under $2700 and addresses quite a few things that the Ready Lift kit does not.

I would still go with the Backcountry kit as they use custom valved Fox remote resi shocks that are going to ride/perform better than any 2.0 non-resi.:thumb:
