I'm looking at getting the C-gusset kit for my JK and I've found the EVO and Synergy ones are available here in Australia.

EVO for $109AUD 3/16th inch thick steel

Synergy for $85AUD 1/4 inch thick steel

Other than price and thickness would there be much of a difference between them, are there any pros or cons to either kit?
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Apologies if this thread has been raised before.

I recommend evo. The original

I know Evo has the name behind it, but also thinking the extra 1.5mm thickness on the synergy ones will give a bit of extra strength.
The price difference isn't an issue for me.

With good welds, 3/16" is all you need. Nearly impossible to bend the gusset

Sometimes bigger isn't better..depending on your coils, it's already close to the gusset. Never heard of anyone bending a evo gusset.

Didn't think of that, will have to look at what sort of clearance i've got

Good points. My RK and now EVO coils rest on the gusset.
