Default I need help determining what the differnce is in these two OME suspension kits please

I've been looking at the OME shock and coil kits (with F&R track bars - from Northridge 4X4) and then there is the coil and LT shocks as well as lower control arm kit (also including the F&R track bars plus brake line extensions).

In reality what can I expect in the way of one vs the other on the trail? Difference in price is a significant chuck of change -- $900 vs $1500. I'm just trying to decipher what the expected differences will be one vs. the other. How noticeable will it be and is there that huge of a difference in the gained articulation? What other benefits are there?

Thanks y'all......

Have you read posts talking about 'complete' kits vs 'incomplete' kits? The LT kit has everything you will need. The other is the basics, and you will add components when you get around to it.

Another advantage to the LT kit is that it has special Long Travel shocks, which will give better flex offroad.
