To me, neither is really worth it simply because of the cost, but alot of people will swear by 'em.  Make your own decisions with the info from your searches _____________________________ 2000 Blazer 4d LS 4x4 - 265/70/15 General Grabber AT2s - Hunter Brush Guard - Surco Roof Rack with IPF 868s - 1.5'' Shackle + Tbar - 2'' BL (in reply to Csmoney28) Post #: 3
