I have UAS bags on KYB Struts, with Easy Street Air Management System(http://www.easystreetair.com/index.a...ROD&ProdID=706)
As much as i'm a fan of Air Runner I just couldn't afford it, everything still cost me cheaper than an Air Runner kit.

i have had my K-sport kit installed for almost 2 weeks now. EVERYTHING was included in the kit, sans teflon tape and grommets. You can pick it up for around 3k and probably have one of the most comfortable rides around.

I heard good things about K-Sport, I probably would have gotten them if I'd known about them sooner

correctish..

you can use your OEM struts however since they were not designed to go dumped... they prolly wont last long so yea newer strugs would be best.

so that kit + UAS Bags + Struts + other acc parts like teflon, wood, etc
