Too bad you live that far away. Protrux is a great place with great people. I got my timing chain done there. Great prices, too.

I'm also trying to get a job there. Gonna check back with them sometime this week.

You would go with these over the S-A-Ws? I read somewhere that they were so much more expensive and were so much softer..and were not as good with a aftermarket bumper and winch... I wish I knew where that article was... I do not know, I am just going off of what I read...

I will say this for the KINGS...they sure are puurty

Sway a Way RaceRunner Coilover are a very popular brand that many people have in the Yotatech community.
As for the Kings being soft, you can adjust the height or you can add or remove the gas to make them stiff or soft
Also the Kings are 4" adjustable where SAWs and Fabtech are a 3" adjustable

Actually I dont think they would recomend adding or removing the pressure out of the shock, they are designed to run at a certain pressure. You can adjust the valving of the shock or get heavier coils for them.
