Which of these 2 kits is a better buy? The tera flex seems more complete but I can't seem to find any place to buy it on the internet? Any suggestions?

Also, it says it will fit all ZJs, so I am assuming that means it will fit on an XJ D44 as well? It doesn’t look like it includes Ebrake cables though......does it?
I can get all the parts for around $150 around here, is the price comparable? Thanks.

For me I already had the D44 installed, so a no brainer there.flexj said:"Why not just swap in a 8.8?"
I'll grant you it's stronger than the D35, but not the D44. Maybe in ring gear size but the tubes are reported to be thinner and then there is the little matter of the C-clip. I like the thought that my wheel will stay put if I snap an axle on the D44. I also like the fact I have a replaceable bearing race outboard on the axle instead of using the axle as one.flexj said:"It already has disc's (95 and newer) and is much stronger than the d35 and marginally stronger than the d44."
May be true on the brakes, but what about the new axle perches and new pinion yoke adapter to bolt it in the XJ?flexj said:"Parts are readily avail with no mods."

I'm not saying that the 8.8 is a bad decision, just saying it's not the only one.
