they need to be tuned to your needs. good product and mounts in a tighter area than a coil over. there is a thread or two where the guys installed these. one thread is the " 1 ton jk" build : here ---> https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/show...&highlight=ton

hit the OP up and he will be able to give you more info

I'm thinking about running them on mine. There are some really really good threads on these on Pirate and the "other" forum. I haven't found a reason yet to not go with these over CO's. More stability, no unloading, easier adjustability, plus cost savings since you won't need bumps or sway bars.

abendx is running them. They are slightly more than king/fox coilovers i believe, but eliminate the need for sway bars and they dont unload either. If you have the money, and will be offroading to the point theyll benefit you these are the way to go imo. I heavily debated it, but in the end I am going foa coilover as it will be plenty for my use and is a great price.

They are simple to set up and are pretty light. You don't need limit straps, sway bars, or bump stops. If starting a new suspension from scratch I would go with them. A 16" runs about $750 and you will probly want to invest in a nitrogen tank and fill kit to help with tuning (around $300)
Heat treater is soing a build right now with ORI's and 44's. I am not sure if he is on this forum or not but you can google and find him.
