The NTD kit use's a spindle for some of the lift. It is suppose to keep the ride less rigid. I had to use F150 keys to get mine to clear the 35's. I also had to re arch and add a leaf to the rear. The NTD kit is nice but I didn't get the 6 inches out of the lift. When I got it to clear the tiers the front axles made noise and I had to back off some That was with the spacer also. The ride on the NTD kit was sponge but now it rides good but stiffer with the keys.

The OP asked about a specific kit, not every 6" lift out there.

The brackets are a little different between the two kits. I would say your alignment problem is not a kit problem. I have probably installed 30+ kits and they all hold a good alignment. We have one shop that does our alignments and all the other shops have problems with lifted trucks. I think it has a lot to do with the shop doing the alinment.

it took us about 8 hours to do the lift. no real problems, just took alot of trial and error with the diff grinding. weve done put on about 6 suspension lifts on freinds rides. 2 of them were BDS , the only difference i see with the RCX and the BDS is the option for dual shocks.the fit and qaulity are great. i cranked my torsions a lil in the front, and cut a lil of my valence, due to my offset and my aftermarket 17's. the back is a lil mow ,because my stock leafs have 286k on them. ima order a 1 1/2 addaleaf. i have 33inch iroks on there now, but will upgrade to 35inch LTB's shortly. i will post a pic in a few
