Alterkation or K1?

Here is some quick math:
AlterKtion kit: $5500 plus shipping, maybe tax as well.
Rebuilt and upgraded factory front suspension: $2500.
The aftermarket stuff looks pretty but is a step backward in durability. It would be no fun at all to be out on some road trip and have one of their cheezy Heim joints fail.....with no supplier for them anywhere in sight.
