Great buy!
I was going to pickup one of these from CVO as well, but they didn't have any in stock so I picked up my WARN instead. I love my WARN, but it doesn't have the accessories that this Runva comes with!

Because I just can't seem to leave well enough alone ......... Time to update the suspension I picked up some Rough Country parts from CVO I also have been scrounging around for some JK control arms , this is why For the rear I bought a pair of 2.5 lift coils , and a pair of RC 2.0 shocks from a 6 in lift rear YJ . These have a travel of 10.5 in and an over all length of 26 in For control arms I am going to use factory front lower JK arms for my new rear lowers , and a set of factory rear JK lowers for my new uppers I also made a pair of new upper frame mount brackets from a set of cut off , frame , lower TJ control arm brackets I also have to get a new rear adj trac bar Onto the front I picked up a pair of 2.5 lift coils as well as front shocks from a 3.5 lift JK . These have 11 in travel and 27.5 in over all length . Also added into the mix is RC's adj trac bar and I am gonna try out the HD tie rod The factory JK front upper and lower control arms will be used for my new arms as well I relocated my rear upper shock mounts . I cut the old section of cross member out , where the upper shock bolts on In favor of these I needed to make some clearance from the body My mock up shock in place I got lotz of weldz to burn in and building to do

I love the idea of this, and think its going to run real nice down the roads, and be a flexy lil' bastard. Tough free-ish parts, can't beat it. The JK arms seem suitable for some larger rubber than TJ.
I've been calling it 'mid-arm'. Ever see that Rokmen LJ on 'mid-arms'? wow!
