I've never had experience or heard anything about them, but looking at the pic I noticed the double triangulated long arms attached to the skid plate. I was never a fan on this type of design because usually no matter how easy you wheel it the skid plate always gets banged up and tweaked which is gonna make keeping that thing properly aligned a bitch. That is of coarse if you are gonna wheel it.

thats what my plan was until i seen this set-up and was curious on others opinions.
i've never been a fan of the skid plate designs as well but i was thinking this one may be decent with a little bracing.

If you have a TJ, Clayton has a double tri for you.

for a 7" stretch possibly an idea but that'll lead to 60's and 42" sx's
if i go clayton it'll just be there standard 4-link

clayton has a 5" stretch too, I run it on mine. I'm also running a Tnt front truss on my 60, if it matters too.

I've seen a lot of their work here in CO. The first generation of that lift had some issues. But, all the wrinkles have been ironed out, and it gets great feedback from everyone who runs their equipment now!
