I bought mine from Stage 3, but I have the OME kit. Its incredible for a 2.0 suspension (shock diameter).

The top hats are not installed. You’ll need to reuse the OE top hats. I paid a Brakes Plus to swap them.
After that, the install was easy. I’ve done many Ranger suspension installs and can do the front in about 2 hours. The leaf springs can be tricky, but it’s not terrible. Total install time is about 4 hours.

I’m actually installing this kit on a buddy’s Ranger next weekend.

Depends on what all is included, that said with my experience, I would recommend either looking at the BP-51 Shocks and Struts or going to Dobinsons. The ride quality is night and day.
