Kevlar is better than both. I have second hand personal experience with them.

The tie rods and pitman arm are fairly easy. For the u-joints however, you'll either need a hydraulic press or a big honkin' table vise and 2 sockets. One big enough to "catch" the bearing cup and the other, small enough to push it through.
Oh, and if you're using u-joints with offset grease fittings, make sure the fitting points toward the drive shaft. I accidentally installed mine with the fitting pointing toward the yolk and had to take them out and do it all over again, because it was physically impossible to get a grease gun in there.

I have had my covers off a total of like 10 times last year. I need to invest in the lube locker gasket lol. Then I wouldnt put off changing my diff fluid every couple wheeling trips.

Do you have any personal experience with them? The other tire I was going to get was the KM2 but I like the idea of a 3 ply sidewall with kevlar.
