Nice little basic kit and a good price to boot.

Someone want to point out to me what in that kit helps maintain ride quality and geometry because all I see are shocks to help with that. No trackbar bracket, no lower control arms, no drop pitman arm. I would lay odds that the replacement shocks are the same length as the stock ones are.

Yeah I was confused on that too. Granted I rebuilt my whole front end shortly after I installed the kit so I do think the kit does add some stress to parts especially front end components.

^^^ You might check out the Fierce Attitude M/T they call them an M/T tire I class them as a aggeresive AT tire, last a good long time, have very good road maners, quiet on the hwy, and have a load range E, good in snow and on ice. But they suck ass in mud worthless in my op for that job.

This might sound stupid, but what im doing is buying each tire as my financial situation allows for it. Given I don't need brand new tires right now, so Im just going to buy one every month or two at $208 a tire from tirerack. Of course it still adds up to the total of 4 tires, but at least ita divided up.
