  1. Awesome summary. Thank you. I'm just concerned that if they put this little thought into the aluminum kit, which was clearly an afterthought using off the shelf parts, how much time did they really spend valving the best shock for our rigs. Sometimes I assume when a new model comes out they do little more than weigh four corners, compare to a similar model, and modify as little as possible to get it to work. I like the fox setup as it's less work than the bilsteins, and quite a bit cheaper than the king/icon setups. The rancho quicklift isn't even an option given the fact that they look of poor quality, have complaints about the coils, and are clearly run by accountants not "passionate product engineers" (this is obvious given they slap their label on the shit shocks of every z71 or ford fx4 and nobody likes them). Unfortunately I'm going to have to think about this for a while... As large as FOX racing is now, you'd think they'd have a full time online guy following these discussions.
  2. But they've not swapped them with the others made for the steel upper a-arm? Have they figured out what to look for so you can know ahead of time (the difference between supposed aluminum upper arms?)
  3. So were they able to figure this out? I'm on the cusp of pulling the trigger on a 2.0 setup (mostly on road and imagine a couple extra inches of travel would help offroad), but am not interested if they can't resolve this. Also, now that you've run it for a bit longer, hows the on road ride holding up?
  4. Very interested in improving the ride of my 4 day old sierra. I've had bilsteins before, and i'm looking for more plush/less sporty, but maintain great controll. Based on comments from the start, it seems this is about the same on the street as stock, is that true? Spurshot, you made it sound like it's freaking awesome... but want your take on the street. Is it goign to make the horrible highways I drive turn into pillows/clouds? Thanks for the feedback...
