It is all what you want to do with the vehicle. Also if you can weld and have some injunuity you can put toyota's on a side kick for around  $2000 including the axles.

Agreed..

I can find the extra $$$ yet either, BUT it is nice to see a modern design Coil Kit for the masses. 

Looking great  waiukea boi .  What gearing are you running?

I love my Trail Slayer kit. It rides better than stock and flexes 5 times better. I will post pictures of mines with the 38 boggers that I put on it now. I am running 5.71 but I am waiting for Brent to come out with that reduction box  ;) ;) ;)

Dual cases (Tracker to Samurai) will give you the same reduction, is available now, gives 2x more final-drive options (Hi-Hi, Hi-Low, Low-Hi, Low-Low), eliminates the slip yoke (so you can drive home of FWD if rear is broken), strengthens the t-case by making it a married setup, and costs the same as what Trail Tough will be charging.

That is true jeremiah, but this is a great option for someone without fab skills or access to someone with fabskills. Add that and a slip yoke eliminator kit and you're good to go! And you can keep that round cross member behind the tracker tcase...

Are there fab skills needed for the Rock Rat or OTT doubler adapter? I thought he did all the work, and it was just a bolt-on thing from there? I've been wrong before  ;D

I would say you have to mod the mounts to be similar to sami mounts

I would so by this kit hands down!!  Very awesome. BUT its about a grand over what I would try to convince the wife on. LoL. I was hoping to see 2k on the tag, just about to get income tax back and that would be a sick present to myself!
 I am most likey gonna end up with a leaf spring setup because I have the needed fab skills and its cheaper.  :(

Looks SICK though
