Blake,

thanks for jumping in. . .I was hoping you'd add more input. Your system is good, and people need to know that. I think it's even better with a set of Ridetech coil overs on it! (nudge, nudge, wink, wink!)

I was only trying to state to the masses that you will typically get the best performance from a "system" designed by a single manufacturer. (now that I re-read my post I guess I didn't say it exactly).

The one thing that always gets me is people don't understand motion ratio. The front suspension moves the wheel and tire 5". This, however, does not mean the shock moves 5". Since it's located on the lower control arm between two pivoting points it moves only about half as much as the wheel/tire. So a 3" stroke could provide 6", and a 5" stroke could provide 10". However, the bumpstops only allow 5" of total travel. So "travel wise" both shocks accomplish the exact same thing. The only difference being one uses a stud mount and one uses a ring mount.
