proper design, when the "saver" kicks in the portion tied to the servo moves not the other way around like the MP setup that strikes the diff housing :roll:

It needs no shimming,
Is already bolted to the crossbar, with the MP variant you need to figure out a decent way to bolt it up to the stock or aftermarket one without having sloppy joints that add to the steering slopiness
It comes with bearings and fastners, and the crossbar - what does an aluminum setup from GPM cost? and GPM ain't adjustable
It is adjustable for tension, not a big deal you say? well at least you will never have to strip down the truck to shim up the spring to get back the tension just twist the collar
It has the proper geometry, so you don't have to "notch" anything to get maximum left - right radius, sometimes a problem for those who seek increased turning radius
And the really big plus is the fact that the crossbar is not forced down when the "saver" operates, because the part that moves is connected to the servo arm so that hits nothing
By far this is the best solution for the sad stock Savage setup

they have 800 units or so on backorder!
I live in Canada and they have a retail store here. They had one they could spare, I in turn promised to show it off
