    I did mine recently and bought the Terrain Tamer kit. More expensive. I don't know enough about that one to comment.

    I'd go one with Japanese bearings. Also, buy some genuine inner axle seals, and use them instead of the ones that come in the kit. They're easy to tap in crooked, and the genuine ones seem better quality to the kit ones.

    My choice if tool would be a seal/bearing kit. $35 on ebay.

    I bought my kit from atoc auto and it was fine.
    Just read through Darren's thread today though and there is some serious information in there. That information put together like that is worth a lot of money
