The kit is expensive. I think we paid something like $1600 or so once we dickered with our dealer (local Case-IH dealership). I think they originally quoted something like $1750 or so. If our rice spikes hadn't just been reworked a couple of years ago with chrome extended wear components, it would have made more sense to go with a nex AFX rotor. Our dealership quoted us something like $4700 for the new rotor, but that was not with the chrome bars, but the standard ones which won't last as long in rice. I don't know whether the Stewart Steel kit (I think they call it the Axeceller Kit) will fit the standard rotor or not. I was told it would fit all specialty rotors. I can't comment on the kit because I haven't seen it yet. It is at our dealer but I haven't picked it up yet because my wife gave birth to our son Tuesday, and we just got home from the hospital. The person I've emailed at Stewart Steel was named Del Croissant. His address is: info@stewartsteel.com They sell the kit in the US through Maurer Manufacturing, who has a wide array of dealers. I'll let you know my opinions on the kit once I have it installed and use it.
