FWIW, go with the SFA, you'll be much happier in the long run and will be perform better offroad.

check out ohv_kj's section on the budget sfa build, I was in the shop he had it (re) done in today. His rig is very solid and badass, i actually got behind the wheel today and took the tank for a spin around the block ( :twisted: thought about just leaving and painting it a diff color / vin swap / yadayadayada :twisted: j/k james) The oner danny said he could do that same setup for under 7K including 33" tires / wheels. His work is superior (look him up on petersens 4x4 website, Cape Fear 4x4) and now that he has done a KJ SFA, he's looking for more. I'm seriously considering selling a kidney. It definently blows away any IFS lift.... period. Look into it, talk to ohv_kj, it can be done, good/reliable/badass/35" tires and fit the budget.

I'm sold... just getting the 7k, its going to have to wait till after i buy a house 1-1 1/2 yrs. Then i am most certainly going that route.
