    Yes it will, and limit your turning radius. Its not that much extra work, just take an angle grinder and get after it!

    It's a result of the new kit design. The same would be for the TC kit as well, its just part of the upgrade.

    Couple of reasons. First was I got a really really good deal on the price.

    Second probably is just BS but I feel like the tube/boxed design is better when it comes to crawling over things. If a rock hits a straight wall you just stop, but if it hits a round tube that'll help it slide over.

    Third is I want to be different from the rest of the crowd and see why everyone hates on this kit

    The old design I could understand and know why but this new design is and will be just as good as TC I think. Just because they "copied" TC by integrating the uniball isn't good enough for me to be against it

    I'll put in a vote for Cooper.
    I've heard nothing but good things on the new Pros. The old STTs were unstoppable.

    I'm leaning towards them. They are lighter and $100 less and I've heard nothing but good on then
