I've run both and would say that the Nitro's seem to be easier to set up and are quieter after initial installation. That being said, Nitro seemed to have some quality issues (hardening) over the past couple of years, so I would do some research to see if those have been addressed.
Having just received and unpacked their rear bumper and sliders kit, I would strongly suggest going with someone else's sliders.
All tube has to be coped by the person doing the welding (not a big deal if you're used to working with steel, a nightmare if you're not), not a single slider leg was...
RCV'S went in without issue.
Now to build some sliders and some sort of tire carrier setup for the rear. I'm thinking of doing something similar to GGM's tire carrier as I like the look and want to keep as much of the factory looks as possible.

Lift and tires are on.
I'll put the front bumper and winch on next week, and pick up some steel for sliders too.
I'll get back at it after January, but plan on building the rear bumper (Coastal Offroad is my front runner at the moment as I don't have to cut the rear crossmember) and regearing...

I'd have bought them had shipping been an option (I've since bought tires, glws).
Five years without a Land Cruiser was long enough. The Mrs and I picked up a 1994 tonight and the build will be well on its way within the next few weeks.
The intent with this one is to be a fun family adventure truck. I'm thinking Labs bumpers and sliders, a smaller Ironman lift, 35's, and once...
