Whether or not it actually does anything for performance/handling I really don't know. But I do know it's really not my place to judge how much $$$ or what people want to put on their rig. Let's face it folks..... We've all spend a ton of $$$$ on "things" for our jeeps and some may be unnecessary but you still wanted the item. If your running any tire over 33s/stock life then the xtra $500 prob isn't gonna break ur bank at that point .... So buy the damn thing if it gives u peace of mind and u want it!!

$500 could get you hydro assist.
$500 could get front/rear lunchbox lockers
$500 could get you a welder and steel to make sliders/skids

They don't care about performance in Florida, loud radio, big tires, and bling is all they need to sit in traffic jams.

Sadly this is true. What is especially comical is that guy says he has run up to 42" tires and he's got stock axles. I see this all day long down here!

He does have a killer red painted drop pitman arm though. Must be the reason for the $53k asking price, lmao

10 inches of lift and that pitman arm drops so far down it basically scrapes the ground. Must be hell to actually drive. But even he sprung for hydro over an expensive SS. I think that's fairly telling.
