Say I buy the SLR kit, I would also try for the core exchange. granted since I have 130,000 miles on the OEM steering and many hard off road trips plus I have the SLR Stage 3+ lift and larger tires, my OEM steering is shot. Will Spencer give me a rebate, OUTLOOK LOW. But will he still use the parts I sent him, smart business says yes. Now the next guy who orders will receive my beat part remaufacured/gusseted. So how much better is a remade SLR kit than a brand new OEM kit. I don't know?

Well that's silly...
What can wear out on the pitman arm? It's merely blasted, reinforced then powdercoated. The idler bushings are replaced with brass, the rest is blasted, reinforced and powdercoated. The idler mount is completely fabbed, the centerlink is completely fabbed.
Not saying either is better, just understand the part your concerned about being thrashed are prety hard to mess up... Provided the parts are not damaged (idler bushings excluded), I see no reason you'd not get the core exchange... If not, I cetainly wouldn't surrended them.
I think more folks have the Calmini, so you hear more bitching about it when things go wrong.
I've heard of zero beefs with the SLR steering system... myself included.
