Spend the coin on a locker or a nice set of tire's.

thay seem to reduce approach angle's by a great deal, so less capable.

yer, i don't know how much they cost, but i think you'd be mucking around alot to make a 1% difference in capability, a bit like extractors/RUF/widetrack diff conversions etc

if you want to make a difference do something big, like crawlers, diff locks, mud tyres

everything is worth a look nick, i'd just want to really research how much improvement you're getting before handing over the money. I'm sure the kit is good quality though.

i guess it also depends what you want to achieve... what kind of machine do you want? rock crawling type of thing?

a good aftermarket suspension will do the same, and you won't tell the difference. it does nothing more for stabilaty than a norman aftermarket kit. it will use all you're slip joint, maybe leading to it falling out, it will point the pinion away from the t/case during cycling leading to bindind, and has the potential to understeer. too many cons not enough pro's.
