They pull from a different way for this kit. Not saying you couldn't engineer something different. But as far as bolt in kit I love the Altman kit. My door shut solid like a new car and my doors are not perfect.

Pros: Easy enough installation for even a "novice". I have had my truck since 1995 and I was always nervous about doors flying open, happened many times. I can lock my doors from the key fob when inside the truck so no need to wire a in the door button. As far as "bolt on" A+

Cons: Things get crowded. Get ready to push and bend things to get things perfect for window to function properly. On my kit the buttons lock vs unlock are reversed.
