Summit VS PA

Ok so i was just searching for stuff on BLs and came across a thread that showed a Summit Racing "brand" 3" body lift.

Whats the difference between that one and the PA one?
Come with less stuff?

Lets just say I weigh more than Ace's friend. I am a big ol farm boy and my bumper holds me on it fine but I would not pull a trailer with it though.
