Real world experience says that the serious kit is great and there most certainly is not any dead spot.

If you've got the cash and tools I'd bounce on the serious kit.

Did i say serious's kit has roll or utk has tie rod roll? I do not run his kit nor have i seen it. And inverted t system will have some tie rod roll or dead spot. His kit might not be as bad as others but wheel it hard enough for a while and the poly spacers will wear, this resulting in a dead spot.

If the op would have searched before posting he would have found plenty of threads of the same questions, almost word for word he has asked.

I don't see the need for this type of response. Storm101 is giving his input about a specific product that he has experience with. If you have some knowledge as to the topic at hand, share it and move on. Don't sit around and argue with anyone who has a different opinion.

Sorry to rant, just tired of seeing this happening more and more lately.

When you claim that any utk inverted t system does, yes.

Of course poly spacers will wear at SOME point, it's a contact bushing (cheap and easy to replace too). If you do your maintenance like you should youll catch it before its a problem, and I'm still waiting to read about a spacer failure/wear out, mine look great even with all the conditions I am able to get myself into here.

Also a search will yield almost anything if you have the time, if that was the case we should just use the forum as a database and stop making threads, I could have searched and found a broad misleading response like your first one with the ultimate answer being search for another answer.

I did the linkage upgrade this past weekend with all new MOOG parts and upgrade to the V8 tie rod and beefier dampener.

I got all my parts from Rockauto which were A LOT cheaper than the storefront sites, even with shipping. Without the dampener your looking at about $200, $250 with the dampener.
