First dont buy the ESP clodzilla 4!Ya might wanna try the JPS chassis or the clodzilla 3!I teaked my Esp clodzilla 4 really easily & the cantilevers get alot of play but on the other hand awesome articulation

I have only heard that the clodzilla 3 is tuffer!I`d check around theirs radical chassis,New Era,thundertech etc. .Right now I`m unhappy with the durabilitie of my clodzilla 4
Is the ESP 3 really better?? I looked at the JPS and I'm not reallty sure. My local shop carries the 4, thats why i'm interested.
I'm looking for something not as expensive as the ESP 4 but i might get it. The 3 is lees but is it better or the same??
Right now I'm looking at the K&J 4 x 4 stampede and i think its the one to get! I'm putting up another topic about tips for a K&J 4 x 4 Stampede.

I own a JPS and they are very nice but they have one hitch.
JPS cust service is not good.
I ordered my JPS kit after the article cam e out and that was on May 9th. I was the first guy to call about buying one when the article came out, and he said they had 10 ready to be shipped.
On May 15th they billed my debit card the $454.00 for the chassis and the Clod kit.
I didn't receive the stuff until last week! July 15th!
After calling long distance (30 bucks in calls) over two months they finally came through.
I like the chassis but I won't spend one more dime with them ever.
I was ready to file mail fraud charges.

I emailed JPS & they replied to me within a few days!

They must be faster with you now, but even a few days is too long when your kit is layed up.
I'm just telling my side of the story.
Billing someone two months before you ship them their stuff, and lying to them on the phone is poor business.

That's a tad long too.
ESP is in WI so I should have ordered from them, they are only 200 miles away and my wifes relatives live by them.
Could've just drove to got mine had I gone there.
JPS is in CA, a little too far for me.
