Default Anymore Long Travel Kits out???

Im getting anxious to see more long travel kits! I know Custom Creations has one and Dragonfire has one. Anyone else done yet? Im planning on doing long travel sometime this year but I would like some options and feedback. I need a strong kit that I can race with... Any new info would be apreciated.

I know that Fireball Racing and Shawz Metal Fab are getting close. FST and Funco also have them in the works, but they are a bit farther out.

I'm not sold on all these plated arms, to much unsprung weight, but some do look pretty cool

AZ Strength

FST will have a kit out soon and I am sure it will be the strongest on the market. It will have shock towers front and rear. ESE will also have a kit out very soon with Radflo shocks. I will get pics soon!!

I believe that the plated arms weigh less than the tube arms and are definitely stronger

No way I have had a set of both for a rhino. The plated arms were almost double in wieght. The tube front upper arms were 3 1/2 lbs and the plate ones were 6lbs. Plated arms can be cool looking, but I think it's a bit overkill for a UTV.
