    What are they adjustable for? Bump or rebound + are they rebuild-able/valvable and how does the valving scale compare to known value setups (Bilstein/Fox)? End fittings, options/interchangeable? Stainless body/reservoir, hard rod covers (not plastic or flexi?

    Price wise they are on the money, Fox's and Bilstein's are cheaper (on paper) from overseas but shipping is a killer. A set of Fox's from New York is over $300-.

    Also: what's the OD of the remote can? I may have a lead on some cheap mounting options for you.

    Not enough travel,I already have 11.5" travel in the front now,without supaflex arms.Need the supaflex arms and then work out what I will need

    Thats a 33" tire for comparison






    With the new rear arm in for testing.

    The next lot of sizings will be approx
    397 cc 690 oc - 11.5" travel
    420 cc 736 oc - 12.4" travel
    440 cc 776 oc - 13.2" travel
    our open closed measurements are really good, which allows for a lot better useable travel.

    Do you know how much extra travel you are getting out of the supaflex arms,that will be a determining point.Not much use ordering shocks until the arms are available and I know how much more flex they give.Looks good,I would like to ring and talk a few things over,is that possible?

    Ahh, new rear arm is eye to eye! Very nice! Have you considered a (possibly generic) long arm arrangement to reduce anti-squat?

    I have already been thinking about them but I am not sure if they would actually sell. Even the nissan (wanna-be comp truck) guys rarely put them on as they are waaaaaaay too hardcore--------- go figure!
    Personally they are one of the first mods we do to a 4wd, but thats just me
