I have two friends who run them and in 3 wheeling trips they both have destroyed more CV shafts than I did in 4 years of wheeling with a bracket lift.

Little known fact, that I've been professing for the entire time I've been a member on this site. But being as they're so popular, I still catch mad flack for it every time I bring it up. It's also the main reason I haven't installed them on my rig too.

If I had money to blow I'd go with the Blazeland LT setup. Dunno why, just looks kinda fun. That plus maybe adapting it with some uni-ball tube style UCAs to be a coil-over suspension and chunking the anti-flexing t-bars.
