When I posted the thread, I was thinking more or less that you take an everyday S-10 Blazer that you can aquire for Less than $500.00, remove all the body, Swap in some 3/4 ton Axles with lockers and adequate gears, throw some average tires so you aren't too top heavy, and then wheel the he!! out of it.
Swapping straight axles into an S10 Blazer costs money. I'm sure those Grunt bodies aren't free either. For less than the cost of all that you could probably build a sweet K5 Blazer w/3/4t axles and have enough left for... paint or beer or something.
It would benefit those of us that aren't able to do custom fabrication. When the frame or drivetrain gives, evaluate your situation and either upgrade or build it back the same. It's not like this rig is built to be a competition buggy.
SAS's aren't something most people do in the garage. 
As I remember, and as quite a few have stated in the post, it is built to be a street legal vehicle that can be very capable off road. I don't know if I would ever go with the kit myself, but it would be a very good start if I wanted something that would be comfortable for the family to ride in.
And a K5, Bronco, Cherokee, whatever, is functional and capable and costs less to boot. I guess I just don't get it. It's a new body that costs money, that is kind of ugly.
