I don’t think there is anything to debate at this point. SVC has proven remarkable products and please post up pictures and video when you get your kit!!

jus sayin, black and orange is as OG as you can get on the gen 2 kits.

Who’s fenders and other parts are you guys going with up front to allow for the extra wheel travel?

I'm really saving my pennies for this. Such a beautiful kit and even nicer with its performance.

Same. Gonna be a while lol

so, what is the disadvantage of the RPG BOLT kit in comparison to the SVC MT? seems like it bolts right up to the factory mounting points, and upper can.

I'm not a fan of the the following on the bolt kit:

1. lower arm design.
2. Shock mounting ( including angles that the shocks are at. )
3. Ackerman
4. steering tie rod design.

The bolt kit also makes the truck a full 6 inches wider. With the SVC kit and 0/0 wheels, my truck is 96" on the nose , outside of tire to outside of tire.

My truck is pretty much the maximum width a vehicle carrier will agree to before you start getting charged out the ass for "wide load" fees.

In some states, I'm 1/2" inside having to hang a wide load banner on the back of the truck.

If i was a full 2" wider than my SVC kit, like the RPG bolt kit, I'd have all sorts of annoying interactions with DOT officials.

what type of metal? chrome m?
