I've got one fitted. Had it for a few years now. Nice piece of kit, but as you say, not cheap.
I got mine as as I started to get a very loud rattle coming from the tailgate (sounded like it was going to fall off). Even though the original hinges and tyre carrier felt solid, a process of eliminating everything else led me to try the Teraflex hinge and tyre carrier and it sorted my rattle.
Have to say it is absolutely solid. I've only got 33's and no other accessories on it so it shouldn't be stressed with what I carry on it but I'd not be concerned about adding more stuff to it. I could swing off it and it wouldn't budge.
