Default Ohlins shocks

Hello, I would like to know if any of you swap their shocks for Ohlins shocks? I have a FT 3'' lift with the M-Force shocks, it's not because these shocks are bad but I'm use to Ohlins (race motorbike) which were fantastic even more comfortable than street shocks. You could adjust the shock for high freq to low freq separately so you can filter high freq for comfort but set stiff for low freq (typically breaking).

From what I understand, Alan Plueger commissioned Ohlins to make the coilovers and bypass shocks for his 2008 Trophy Truck. I think that was the first time they focused on the vehicular (not mx or atv) off-road world, and he paid something like $100,000 for the R&D and final product.

They don't make shocks for the JK, but if they did, I'd buy them.
