In fact, that's exactly what you'll get to see in this short video - the Off Road Evolution Coil Over Suspension System and EVO Lever on our Jeep JK Wrangler flexing out over boulders, racing fast across rocky trails absorbing big bumps and, even taking a cool dive into a river. I hope you enjoy it.

I'm installing the double throwdown front and rear in my 09 right now but in a few of the shots in the video it almost looked like the whole axle was bowing? did i see that right or was it just the camera angle that made it look that way? I know you had done upgrade to 60's so if it flex like that with 60 what is the dana 44 going to do? snap?

what you are seeing is the distortion caused by a fish eye lens

Default Incredible

Makes me feel a little less pain in the wallet seeing that video. I just placed my order for front and rear double throw down set ups from the boys. I still get a little queazy looking at the build sheet/invoice!
