Which do you like better?
« on: Feb 04, 2008, 01:46:20 PM »
I think I have room in my budget for one of the two. Which do you like better?

Trail Gear Ram Assist, 2" Ram and TG Pump so I also have good quick street steering (I have 37X14.5)

-OR-

FROR Rear driveline disconnect (Can you say Front Dig? :yesnod:)

Can't say that I like either. Not because of either company, but because I don't see a need for either one unless you are running 4D's or something. As for the DLD I've never really seen a need for it in regular trail riding.

Not to get off track here but I run TG hydro assist and have had no problems with there products true I have had many problems with trail gear themselves but I love the set up they offer even though im not much of a trail gear fan. To get back to the question I would choose the hydro assist kit over the rear driveline disconnect I have heard of problems with the disconnect. Dont buy the steering box already tapped it is very easy to tap the box yourself. go to wildyotas.com

Why spend $500 with West Texas Offroad when you can spend $100 and do it yourself??
