Im leaning more towards the sky kit from lowrange but this petroworks kit looks pretty good to. If it was your money which would you go with?

I'm a fan of the Sky Manufacturing Stage 2 kit:

It comes with the wrap around spring pads which make mounting a lot easier and add additional strength to your axles.  It also includes the OTT steering, or at least half of it, to get rid of bump steer.  You can also get it from Low Range directly in two different pieces:

I have used the 'Stage 1' steering kit for years and have been very happy with it.  I have had to bend a tie rod out due to exuberant driving that was stopped by a stump.  But in my defense it was a timed course.  :D
