I have done some researching on both and I have to say the TnT Kit is better. I have yet to hear anything bad about TnT, but Rusty's on the other hand..... Look up some Rusty's reviews and you'll see what I mean.

i would reconsider the jeep you want to put all this stuff into first

the 2.8 v6 sucks, i bet your tranny sucks and the np207 doesnt have much aftermarket support

if you make good money now why not start with a better building platform? you will be much happier in the end.

Are rusty reviews really that bad? It seems like rustys comes with more stuff than the T&T. And no wife or kids just a girlfriend. I like the jeep I have now. I have a buddy thats a hardcore chevy fan and we wanna drop a small block into it come spring time. Soon enough this trusk probably strictly for trails.

Rusty's is a good kit if your on a budget, but hands down TnT is a better kit...

And I'd say also look into another Jeep to build as well...
