Oh nice they didn't jack the price around too badly. I've been running these for a while and very happy with them - glad I will be able to get another set if/when I needed to.

Nice!

I'm almost tempted to just buy a set for when the other goes in for a rebuild.

Just installed both front and back with the Broken Innovations diff drop ( couldn’t have done it without @GI_Jo_Nathan ). I haven’t been on a trail yet but around town it is better than OEM.
I think people are sleeping on this shock package. They are 2.5 diameter and adjustable without having to take the shock off the truck .
@Oldhippie has had them on for a while and can give a better assessment on trail use.

I've had these on for almost a year and I don't think they can be beat for the price. They're tuned for the weight of a moar door, but with skids, tools, etc. they ride great on my 2 door. They also provided enough clearance for 37s with just very minor modifications

What modifications? I just bought 35x11.5 and feel like they’ll suffice. I like the skinnier tires.

I’ve put off buying these - but, I think it’s time.

I'm running them with 38x11.5's

They fit my 35x12.5 with just UCAs/rear trac bar bracket (and probably didn't even need those, I had them from before).

With the 38's, I did have to do a bit more work: JKS max tire kit (the front fender liner relocation was the most important part), 3/4" body lift, 1/4" leveling top hat on the rear to clear some minor rubbing in the rear fender well (may not have needed the rear top hat if I had went with a 1" body lift in the first place, or just cut the damn rear fender liner, it was pretty minor rubbing), but so far these 4WP/ProComps are holding up well.

Dang! Who makes 38x11.5? I’ve never seen that spec.

I have a set of non-Sasquatch Bilstein (that had less that 500 miles) that I assembled with SVC collars that have been sitting around waiting for my current set of tires to run their course. I’m about 10k away. But, got a killer deal on rubber and was concerned things might get hairy a year from now in terms of availability and price increases.

My main concern now is that those Bilsteins will inevitably leak/crack and I’ll have the same mediocre ride that I have now with Sasquatch Bilsteins.

I would really like a full-on new suspension ride/feel.

All I did was cut off the rear crash bar mount and moved the stock wheels out 1". No rubbing, and I've wheeled it pretty hard

Alright, I pulled the trigger on a set before parts become unavailable again. FedEx did me dirty and destroyed the fronts. Luckily they sent a replacement pair within days instead of a month backorder as they claim.

Covered in oil and top hat is all jacked up. I didn’t take that close of a look to see the extent of the damage - but, the damper itself is shot I assume? Seems like they just want me to discard them. I’ll be sure to salvage what I can for backup parts.

I would think the entire unit could be repaired. It's probably just some of the seals that gave out. These are rebuildable shocks after all.

Iirc the top hat is not installed to be a flat surface.

There are photos in one of my threads.

That makes sense. I have to hold onto them for 30 days to see if they want them back. I figured the top hat was the least of my concerns.

 

[redone17]

Ah, yes. Upon closer inspection - the top hat is on a pivot/shaft. That’s a nice feature. I don’t remember seeing that on other brands.

I can’t wait to get these things mounted.

@Cajun Czar or anyone else that has installed these:

Did your front end squeak and creak for a bit during settling/break-in?
