This kit has been around for a while and not got any buzz for a reason. Nice idea, very incomplete.
This is why I dumped mine and put it on a dakota chassis. At the time industrial chassis wasn't doing the the dakota thing anymore, they are back at it. One guy in South Dakota has purchased one and ready for the install.

Some people have noted the same concerns, but to me they are not a huge deal. The notching of the frame is not a huge deal. Depending on desired ride height, it may not even be necessary.
The turning radius can easily be just a matter of a different rack and pinion set up.
The thread below details a install of the Danforth set up really well.
