I've done both kits several times. Once you open the box, the contents were boxed and wrapped the same. Probably from the same manufacturer.

I was wondering the exact same thing. I like the price of RR but have heard great things about AA. Then now I'm hearing to do JB Conversions since it is shorter overall.

JB CONVERSIONS IS THE BEST!!!

truly they have the best kit. pretty much all the poly/ AA kits are the same and are made with parts from over seas. the JB CONVERSIONS kit was designed and built from the ground up in the USA.
ABD their kits have many design advantages! mastly in their seal/bearings but also they have the best YOLK on the market.
GO WITH JB CONVERSIONS. $199

I cant stress it enough...the AA and poly performance kits are great and will definatly get the job done..but when it comes to the questions of... "what is the best SYE kit out there?"
JB CONVERSIONS is the best. HANDS DOWN. and is priced about the same. i think $220 with shipping
