You received the extensions instead of the bushings, the website simply hasn't caught up to the change... they don't have an on-staff website person. it sounds like nitpicking to me, I would prefer extensions.
Savvy TJ body lift doesn't include urethane bumpers

Don't tell him about the Genright's description of their raised body mounts. That one is truly confounding.
OP
@Chris fix Savvy's damn website, lol.
Yeah mountain out of a mole hill, whatever you want to call it. Ordering a Genright twisted pitman arm next....
Didn't we figure out last year that Chris was part owner of Savvy?
Sounds right. I bet if I order a new forum t-shirt it will come with a rare savvy sticker too.
The sticker was the first thing I checked for when my sliders came in last week..
OP
No sticker in my box either. I don't put them on the Jeep anyway. They can keep 'em.

The MORE body lift (also aluminium) comes with new extended grill supports and an extended steering shaft support. Including postage the MORE one is cheaper as well.
Based on everything I have heard on here, my money would be on the website being unchanged in a years time.

I get it. I was similarly worked up when I ordered a JKS rear track bar and it came with their proprietary joint instead of the JJ they used to have (and was still pictured with, at the time. I didn't get anywhere with their customer service, either, but ultimately ended up installing it and haven't had any issues in 10k miles so far.
I don't think the stock bumpers are urethane, they seem pretty soft to me, and in that regard, the extension is probably a better arrangement to maintain the same response as the factory bumper. I didn't pay enough attention to the page to notice they said anything about urethane snubbers so I didn't think anything of it, other than that I wouldn't have minded some new ones since my stock bumpers are long in the tooth and the one on the driver side is about ready to fall off.

Regardless of what the site says or doesn't say. Extending the grill snubbers with a puck is the better solution over a longer snubber. My old JKS body lift had those and seeing them side by side with Savvy, Savvy is better and more stable. I have a feeling that the best solution is to weld an 1.25" platform onto the frame to support the raised, unextended snubbers. But Savvy is designed to be a bolt on kit, so you get extensions. But nothing is stopping anyone from welding.

It's all good. I wont use half the kit anyway with raised frame mounts. If my rubber bumps are shot I will find some new ones or glue them in.
Should have just spun some pucks on the lathe if bar stock wasn't so expensive.
I was ask if you got one and didn't want it..
You won't get the shirt.
or its a completely different design shirt than what is in the photos. Questions going forward on Savvy complaint threads from here on out:
1. Did you get a sticker?
2. Yeah customer service sucks, products are awesome. (If yes to number 1) Can I have your sticker?
What's funny is I almost went with that kit because I bought the steering shaft support separately. I didn't want the longer poly supports though.

I got stickers with all of my Savvy stuff. But that was years ago when their customer service was only bad and they still bought stickers to give away.
All my Savvy stickers are stuck to things that I prefer to keep.
Best quality jeep parts come with chapstic anyways. Everybody knows that.
OP
I have several of his parts. He's much nicer on the phone than online.
I can confirm! He called me a fucktard the other day on the phone.
