I'm going to be buying a pair of 2.0 Remote res 14" travel coilovers asap.
Just curious what everyone is running and why you like the brand that you like.
I'm leaning towards FOA based on the price, but i'm not dead set on anything yet.
Heres my current opinion.
Fox and Swayaway are about the same price, and i feel like they about the same product. Kings are the $$$. I don't know much Radflo. Bilsteins are the $$$ as well, but i know that they have the intertia valve in them, like an edlbrock IAS shock, that is speed sensitive valving, but you've got to pay for them. FOA's seem like a good product from all the forums, and the price seems better than others, but you do get what you pay for.
I'm not going to run airshocks. These are going on the back of my YJ. Mostly trail driven, its not a racecar, but i don't always crawl everywhere either. It also does see some street time, maybe 20 miles a week, when the weather is nice, and nothings broke. I wouldn't want to be limited and not able to run down the highway if i wanted.
So,
What brands are you guys running?
Have you tuned or had them tuned (valving)?
Have you had to make any repairs, and are parts easy to get?
What kind of Factory support have you recieved if you've needed it?
but basically,
What brand would you reccommend and why?
