    Glen your flex looks better than what I get with the TJM 2" lift kit.

    OME Nitrochargers, N115's on the front and N44's on the rear, they are slightly firmer valving than the std recomended by ARB.

    I run the kings on the rear. Happy enough with them but as someone else said, they do bind as mine have the marks to prove it too. I carry a heavy load with LR tank, storage unit etc and the kings have handled this well with help from polyairs-they ride firm with no load tho. On the front I have LRA 180psi springs and I am very happy with how they carry bar, winch and dualbatts. I previously have tried kings and the old rears in the front but found I bottomed out a fair bit and the ride was much worse than the LRA's. I found that the front kings and the old rears gave exactly the same height and ride feel-the LRA's much nicer. The whole setup sagged about 10mm during my trip to Cape York.

    THX - its more to do with the person taking the photos, the car doesnt look as good in the flesh!!!

    yeah the 220lbs feel good - going to be installing my winch soon, this was the reason for going so long and harder.
