So this thing is 15K and you need and extra 5K in additional requirements like hydro assist, new gas tank, etc..... Not to mention the labor but just keep this in mind is a lot cheaper than a moon rover hell you never know maybe some day we would be able to go wheeling on the moon or mars lol.

If they are it's probably just to show how much money they have. No reason a suspension system should cost that much.

but to be fair the evo setup is $8500 and doesnt include the gas tank, skids, and some of the other stuff in the genright setup, at least that i can tell (please correct me if im wrong). so price wise the evo kit is not that cheap either. just to clarify im talking about the double throw down system NOT the bolt on coilover setup.

I don't think the evo setup requires the gas tank to be moved.

it doesnt require the gas tank relocation, but the GR comes with a lot more stuff than the evo kit. i would imagine if you removed all the extras from genrights kit, the cost would be relatively close. from what i have seen on evo's site (again correct me if im wrong) it basically only includes the mounting harware, the coilovers, and a couple add on options. the GR comes with skids, 3 link for the front, 4 link for the rear, coilovers, gas tank, mounting hardware, sway bars for front and rear, and a few other things (see earlier post that shows a complete listing of parts included).

rebel off road has a great reasonably priced bolt on coilover kit as well. May be something worth looking into if you are exploring options.

not looking for a bolt on setup. looking for full weld on. the price really isnt my concern, its more wanting to know if this setup works well and if anyone has it, do they think it is worth the $$ because it is a fairly expensive kit.

I don't think that's the case. It comes with the gas tank and necessary parts to relocate, the skids, etc. And anyone who thinks they are getting KIng Coilovers for 2k is crazy or their last name is King.

the only requirement that isnt included in the 15k is wider axles. so either a currie rock jock made to their specs or a custom of your own...
