For those that do not know, I work for CavFab..I handle all of the customer interactions, as well as everything that pertains to the website...building it, incoming orders, yada yada.. I also assist in product design.

The Alpha kit was something that came from dozens of suggestions we got from folks who bought our original 3 link design..

I believe it covers everyones wants in one kit.

I can answer questions about it, or there are more detailed specs on the website (cavfab.com)

We had a lot of people claim the upper joint would bind or contact the surface beneath it..however we proved that wrong today.

First off...currie designed the JJ in a manner in which the spherical joint body will not contact a mounting surface..all while allowing over 22* of movement in any 1 direction.

At full droop of my 12" travel front fox shocks there was no binding and no contact of the joint body on the x-member..

Same here, I used to be a fan of all black but I really am in love with the gunmetal silver color we use on everything.

Easy to touch up as well, I have a can in my garage to soothe my OCD.

Hey Dave I just met Donovan today, I gotta say he's one cool cat. When I get another jeep I'll be heading to rising fawn for a long arm kit.
