I purchased and installed the Calmini complete lift kit about 1997 or 98 and I'm happy with it. When I purchased my kit I wasn't aware of Darlington and Independent 4X. I only learned of Calmini because it was featured in one of the 4X4 magazine with their kit being installed on a Rodeo. The quality fit and finish of their parts is stellar. I'm not sure I would purchase the kit again if I had to just because of customer service. I expected better service from a company that I made a purchase from just for repeat business. The installation instructions were not that great but I was able to get it installed in a long weekend with the aid of the magazine article and pictures to help guide me. I had no problems having it aligned at a local shop.
