a good friend of mine had that kit on his yj w/ dana 60's. i was not impressed at all. he bent up the arms and bent a lot of the brackets. the flex he got out of the kit was less than impressive. for the money just build your own kit. if memory serves me right the c/o only had 12" of travel. i will look for pics and post them.

I also know the YJ that had the kit on it. Bad news. The bending arms did not surprise me due to the environment. However, one of the first trips out of the garage to test the twin stick, involved a front dig which resulted in an exploding front CA heim. Later the big fancy rear truss twisted very bad. 1 year later, other than the frame brackets and coil overs, every piece of the kit was replaced with bigger/better parts.

Not to sound like a broken record but; if you can, make your own or if you want to buy a good strong kit than check out Claytons.

poly performance has the link brackets you need and would really want takes all the math out of it for the most part. you can use yourexisting axle s and some parts off what you have. as far as your coil overs check out jeepman14wheel. good threads on his build and is't nothing super crazy but works great.
