I don't know much about that specific kit, but it looks ok to me and having bought a couple steering systems for other jeeps, I can say the price seems fair if the quality is good... Doesn't seem like there's much to it, but a lot of times by the time you buy the tubing, tie rod ends and tooling to build a kit on your own, you usually don't save much!

Yeah I didn't think the price was that bad either, figure it might save some time as well

question?..... you know how its kinda of a pain to get to the bleeder value on the rear brakes and the wheel cylinder bolts.... has anyone or can you take the four center bolts out and turn it to the right?? know the brakes will be sideways and i don't know if they would function right lol but just a thought........

you can hold the caliper, bleed fitting up, bleed the air out, then mount it any way you like......al

Just make sure that you have a rotor between the pads or you may experience a piston that kinda goes beyond the twilight zone

I ended up using a shallow socket on a 3/8 ratchet to bleed the rear wheel cylinders. Not fun >

D.C. is correct, i forgot that part. put a block of wood in the caliper or the piston may pop out....al
