They look sick. That's all I know. I might get them if they weren't worth more than my jeep;)

Longest travel of any shock out there. Cant see them being worse than a whitebox/stock for ride quality. They are on my "lottery list"

I have been running them for over a year now the shock itself is great nice ride amazing travel as advertised. Really only issue I have with them is the rod ends they are pretty well shot after 15-20k but that could be due to mclean mud not cleaning everytime as well as I could of and Canadian roads in the winter. As of worth that depends on your pocket book imo and how you plan your build. personaly I wouldnt consider the shocks without there control arms astleast

Why would you run the top of the top in suspension and then do middle of the road diffs?

Im going to take a guess at not informed yet?

I had the pleasure of driving a 4 door jk with the full metal cloak suspension today. Smooth and controlled ride. No harsh knocks or clunks over bumps or cracks in the road. Very nice system.

there is a silver JK here in Langdon with the 6 packs, i'm not sure if this Pearson is on the forum or not. At first I though it would take up lots of room, but after seeing in they are quite compact, cool design.
