SOA vs SUA: for a rig primaryly for trails but must get me there and back. ( was thinking SOA w/ YJ springs.)
steel vs aluminum body armor: anybody used the aluminum yet? was wondering if they're durable at all or worth the money for the weight reduction.

reptile610:
thoughts on this?

They are only legal in states that do not have fender laws (i.e. Texas).  Also, there is no need for a comp cut on any rig, unless... you stretch the wheel base far enough to where you have to.

If your looking for armor, I would take a serious look at Genright. I really like their stuff I have used on my rig.  Everything it top notch quality and they have great customer support.

Now for lift.  I would personnally consider doing a highline and 35's with no lift.  You'll keep it low, only have to buy the armor, and still have tons of clearance.

As for the spring over debate, I'll leave that answer to the guys running leaf springs.  Like I said though, I vote no lift, highline and 35's.

i was looking at gen rights stuff also and was thinking the hi line stuff anyways. didn't know i could run 35's stock with them though.
