    They did like 5 updates on mine when it was done. Rear springs, something in the steering column clutch master cyl and front springs. Paid nothing.

    They covered springs at no charge to you? It came with a block in the back and a spacer in the front so it has some lift but been debating on changing it. Im a contractor and when I have stuff in the back in drops like crazy and bangs around. It has the replacement leaf pack which surprisingly sucks, or something does because I should be able to use it like a truck. Been thinking air bags but also considering other options. Have others had a similar experience as @Jckdnls? I have heard and fear that they are going to try and rake me over the coals in the end with a surprise amount due.

    I' m not sure of the brand i got it off Amazon. It's a bigger pain in the ass to get to it then anything else. I use a box cutter and went slow.

    Yup! Really easy, just need 3-4 hand tools and some patience. I'd say it's probably a 25 min job on average.

    I haven't seen any being sold like that. I've only seen the insert being sold by itself new. I've heard of just the surround being sold color-matched, but haven't seen any myself either.
