Superlift 6in Rockrunner vs Standard 6in-pics please

Any people with either of these kits with pictures? Pictures would help tremendously!

I'm leaning more towards the rockrunner but also not sure if I should go with the bilstein shocks or bilstein reservoirs.

I'm basing the kits off of the kits on 4wheelparts.com

Not a great picture of mine, but all I had available. I have the "regular" 6" Superlift kit. I did go with the Bilstein 5100's all the way around and the Bilstein dual stabilzer. I had some tire wear issues and later developed DW. I added the double front shock hoops with more Bilsteins up front. It made a big difference. The front end feels better planted on rough roads. I also added the Thuren track bar when I bought new rubber. I couldn't be happer with the ride.

I think the difference in the kits is basically with the SL rock runner kit you get the radius arms provided, not 100% sure on that off the top of my head, maybe someone else can clarify that. As for the Bilstein shocks, I think you will be happy with the 5100s. Unless the shock sees alot of cycles and heavy abuse, probably no need for the resevoirs...but they do look pretty trick!

I have the standard kit on my truck, I'm pretty sure the only difference between the two is that the rockrunner comes with different links that "provide greater articulation."

I installed the 6" superlift with a 2" leveling on top. I also went with the bilstiens and added a adjustable trac arm. I also went with the dual stabalizer.

the only difference is rockrunner links are threaded together so they twist giving you "increased articulation"

Do you have any driveline issues?
