Thanks oldman! I appreciate your experienced insight. I know the factory lifters are bunk so, my inexperienced assumption was that whatever TSP included in the kit was an ample upgrade. It's an...

Probably because those "other" companies don't pay tribute to the mods and succumb to their monetary demands in order to have a presence here. We'll have to post them on our own.
