Yep I was looking at that exact kit, but there is a part of me that is screaming stick with OEM. I've run into that issue once with my STi where I bought a cheaper ball joint and no matter what just didn't last even with their lifetime warranty. It was just the hassle of removing and redoing. Ended up going OEM and it's been fine for years.

Anymore I think I buy more OEM when it comes to vehicle stuff.

I priced everything together and if I went with all offbrand stuff it would be less than half the cost of all OEM. I love that but concerned with redoing.

Now that fall is coming, it might not be as bad honestly and I might even start buying pieces so it's not a chunk all at once.. then by spring replace everything. I am half tempted to install a power window retro kit that I saw on you tube of a ranger edge guy and for $50 have the convenience of power windows. The switches look kind of stupid because they are stuck on the panels but it appears they function fine with up and down motion.
