Rick's Rangerz 3 Link Kit - has anyone used one?

Saw this today, and got all hot under the collar:

So this will finish out the parts to buy list for the 2011 if it will fit a 2011. Called Rick to see why it's only listed to 2009, waiting for a response.

Does anyone out there have any experience with the kit, or is there a build thread on here that features one? Looking to mix it with coilovers, not with bags (tho bags are cool).

No experience with that kit but I've been eyeballing his 1st gen coilover brackets for quite some time. I was also hoping someone would have some experience with it before I bought one.

Well. We will see how the call with him goes when I hear back. If it'll fit my 2011, it will probably be happening as I slowly turn it into a street truck. Leaf springs leave a lot to be desired for handling. This plus a panhard/track bar will work out for what I want... maybe.

I am curious about the answer to this, because I thought the leaf springs were the same mounting location through 11.

Only thing I can think of is that it uses the diff housing as a way to mount the top link, and there may be something screwy with the 2010/11 diff (there are many things screwy with the 2010/11 diff, this may just be another one)
