Whoa bud,
I never trashed the Rancho kit, I just said the T.C kit looked much
stronger and beefier than
Previous Rancho kits I've had (FWIW I've had 5 of them!!)
Rancho makes a good product? Yes.
I originally planned on going with the Rancho kit (John will vouch for this)
But I just thought I'd try something new!!
We'll see, it may be up for sale in 6 mos.!
