All 4 coilovers plus uca for only $1141 on boss4x4. Idk if they're much of an upgrade from bilsteins but for base suspension def a killer deal.

Is anyone running these on a Sasquatch, and if so, do you get any additional lift height? Trying to figure out if a set of these coilovers front and rear, the UCAs and the rear track bar would allow for 37s on a Base Sasquatch 2-door on a 17x9, +0 wheel.

Just posting a quick update, got mine finally installed this week. I'm coming from badlands stock Bilstein to this, haven't had a chance to wheel it yet. I have a 2 door 2.3 mt base, so pretty much the lightest weight configuration. With the preload collars backed all the way out to minimum setting I got 1" lift front and 1.5" lift rear(over badlands). So from stock base height that should be theoretically 1.5" lift front and 2" rear. I have about 1.5" rake. Which is a bit more lift then the claimed 1" minimum, but I'm guessing that's supposed to be for a 4 door, hope that helps someone.

How do these compare to the Eibach 2.0 coilovers? They seem to be around the same price range right now.

Not trying to be a hater, but I'd rather go Bilstein, Eibach, Radflo, King, Fox, etc

And with the exception of Radflo you would still get a San Diego shock. I only recently learned they pretty much all major name brand coilover makers are based in or in close proximity to San Diego. Interesting, since it is hard to find a more expensive place to manufacture than San Diego. Maybe that is why coilovers cost that much.

Fox and Bilstien are the only manufacturers in the San Diego area.
Radflo, Icon, SAW, Fabtech are in the Inland Empire/Riverside. King is in Huntington Beach.

King is in Garden Grove and Radflo is in Fountain Valley.

You're right. Not sure why I thought Radflo was further inland.

To the op, how have they held up over the last couple months? They have a pretty good price cut on them right now and I’m thinking about picking some up.

@SS Bronco has a ton offroad time(2-3 years?) with them and a full Baja EXO trip on them. The rest of us are trying to catch up to him.

Hey guys!

I finally got around to installing some coilovers! Im Impressed. To be fair I’ve been running the base suspension package with some 2" pucks that wasn’t going to be hard to beat. I was able to find some 4WP 2.5 VSRT coilovers second hand for a good deal, so it was a no brainer to give them a fair try. Prior to that I was heavily debating the Eibach 2.0 Pro Truck Coilovers after seeing all the good reviews.

I've been putting the 4WP coilovers to the test for 2 weeks now that also includes 2 trail days and I have no regrets yet. The ride is better. The rebound is WAY better. The travel seems to be better, especially with up travel. I've driven the Sasquatch Bilsteins off-road and I can confirm that the 4WP feel much more refined, especially at higher speeds off-road.

Is it worth upgrading your bilsteins to gain the slight difference? Probably not, unless you are chasing increased ride height adjustability. If you are someone with the base suspension package its a night and day difference. These coilovers are priced more than the Eibach option but less than the big brand coilovers. I feel it's a fair middle ground that will get you into a more desirable 2.5 aluminum body. I will continue update on my experience with them as I wheel often. Next Stop, Moab! What's your opinions on the more budget friendly adjustable coilover options?

Proper UCA are on the To-Do list.

How much of a ride height increase do they provide vs SAS 2.0?
