An as far as the lower spring plates if I can't use the ones off my stocks struts then I'll just pick some up down the road....

yes it was a little cheaper but the main reason was because bilstein has a lifetime warranty (i know BDS does as well) but i have seen first hand the seals on the bds struts fail (the struts start making a swoosh sound when being compressed an flexed, just means valving isnt holding up well) this isnt a big deal at all because of the warranty, but that means taking the truck apart, and waiting to receive new parts, down time with out my rig would suck, so just trying to avoid every dilemma that can arise. also my local BDS distributor (also a shop who has been known as best in texas with reliability on custom builds an installs (even though they arnt installing my kit) has told be that they have never witnessed a bilstein fail from crawling and mudding, the owner has seen 2 pair his whole life fail in baja racing... but i mean what wouldn't fail in baja racing!
