Did you find any better than 535 plus shipping on that DK13HLQ?
I'm all about getting nice stuff, but ouch! :o

That said, I'd gladly pay that amount again for the use I get out of it along with the quality.

This is the one I have. I've used the AC when working for the rally team. Functionally, they're both the same. The AC has nicer fit and finish and a nicer handle.

Since you've handled both, maybe you can help me out.
You can see my thread about both of them HERE
It seems the chassis Ranger goes up in height right away, approx. how tall is it at it's tallest point?
Does it ramping up like that right away vs. the AC unit which does not cause any problems?
