Default steering systems

Are high steer systems really that big of a benefit? For those of you who are running a high steer setup please share what components you are using along with lots of pictures.
Have you ever been caught up on your steering setup on the trail?
Would something like this be all you really need instead of knuckles and all?

It all depends on your application. if you do serious rock crawling, it's just a matter of time before your steering gets crushed. Getting it up and outa the way while helping the flex is a huge benefit for crawlers. for less rock more mud applications it's worth the money but not a must. So my advice is, if you do a little of everything, this high steer kit looks good for you. If you go out crawling at Moab and crap every weekend, you'd wana look into a whole kit with knuckles and everything as well as a drop pitman arm and steering box skid. I recommend TnT, Rock krawler and iron rock offroad they all make superb steering kits
