i'm down to try the homemade one what's the worst that could happen? one gives out in an off camber situation and causes a dratamatic rollover with severe rig damage and personal head trauma, at least i'd have a good story
i voted for acos, just that way you can adjust as needed with bumper and such. If you get it wrong with springs or poly and its not level, your out money.
I've had mine for about a year and I have no complaints, I had to cut the factory bump stomps off of my 93, some of them screw on though I think. The only problem I had was that the rubber part of the bump step keeps falling off because the allen head screw continuously falls off.
