My evo gussets are being installed this week along with their frt control arm skids. Also 5.13 gears and a frt locker. Northridge has a combo deal on the evo skids and gussets.

I like the Mount Logan gussets and I would also do their axle tube sleeve as well rather then putting trusses on the outside of the tube. Their gusset and sleeve kit is $120.

Like the Mt. Logans as well, but tube sleeve inserts and axle trussing are two different things really. Trusses like the upper pass side tie the axle tube into the upper control arm mounts both sides, providing needed strength, sleeves alone do not provide that.

Also the $120 kit price from them was a 2 week special, it's $150 for the kit w/trusses and $120 for sleeve inserts. Went back up due to mat'l costs is what I was told over the phone.
