The only difference is if you want something custom that you won't find on a standard package.


Complete classic lower $159.99

Classic build kit $89.99

Stripped blemished lower $79.99

So the parts come to $170 plus shipping around $12.00 or so if they ship together, if not then probably $20 so you are at $190 when you can buy the same parts pre assembled for $159.99 with free shipping. A savings of $30 and assembled with factory warranty and no lost springs or other pieces that flew across the room while being assembled.
No doubt in my mind, for me and where I'm at I would buy assembled. I can watch YouTube videos and disassemble at my own leisure.

Thanks Charlie
