Default JeepSpeed Rustys Off-Road 4-Link?!?

What do you all think of this.. new product from rustys? I wont be running it but I figured some may be interested..
I dont see why It wouldnt be better then their radius arm setup.. and its not a bad price.

There brackets are actually pretty darn nice...watching an install video now..
The brackets bolt around the unibody and through the floor. Brackets are definately beef. Im not sure about their heims but the kit looks pretty darn good.

For the record, I recommend rustys.. Not over RE, or quality companies..but ive ran 2 different rustys kits, and various rustys parts on all my jeeps. I like em. There is better stuff out there but they are moving in the right direction Id say.

i have never bashed rusty's.
one person has a bracket snap off and everyone tells about it.

rusty's over many other kits out there that so many tries to defend.

swap out those hiems for johnny joints and all would be good.

seems like a solid product.

Rustys just made some junk parts in the past, seems they have been improving thier lineup recently.
