Default Heavy duty steering upgrade suggestions

Ok, since I damaged over half of the steering components the last time I hit the trail, it's time for an upgrade. I had already swapped in a ZJ tie rod to get rid of the insuffecient stock unit, but want to go for a complete system. Money is no object , but seriously since I have all winter to save up for a quality kit I am looking for input and options. I have been researching different manufacturers and setup configurations, and want to know what others are running on their rigs.

I have the Rusty's and love it. It's super heavy duty. they used to use real cheap TRE but they since have upgraded to a better setup. Great stuff.
