thanks for the input guys. There is only a 5 dollar price difference between the two and after a bit more research 5 dollars more for the AA and being built in the USA is worth it to me. Plus I read that the AA tech department is a lot more helpful than the other.
That being said I heard that AA used to make certain parts of the rugged ridge but doesnt sound like that is no longer the case but I guess the two look identical side by side.
Where is the Rugid made?
I've got a stock rear setup at 5 inches of lift with a 8.8 and get a lot of flex and I've not had one issue with needing a SYE but not everyone is as cheap as I am.
I have put in 3 rugid ridge kits all went in great
AA had a problem with the output seal spinning and leaking but if you are getting a new kit that should be fixed now
x2I have the Rugged Ridge kit and had no problems installing it.
The rugged ridge kit is probably made in China along with the rest of their garbage. I have the teraflex sye kit and haven't had any problems for the two and a half years that I've had it.
Everythings made in china now..I believe both kits are made in China.
Opposed to the Rugged Ridge Atlas 4-Speed SYE? :laugh:I went with Advanced Adapters.
