Agreed. And if it can't handle your tires it damn sure won't be able to handle mine. I just took mine mudding the other day and oil started leaking right after. I'm probably going to order a king ss 2.5 I'm tired of this

crap...not good to hear. I just ordered up the woods evap and ss relocation to go with a TF ss. I hope this is not the case with my TF SS, all my other TF stuff are great. Do you guys have your's relocated? did you smash them?

not relocated and not smashed. the first one i put on myself, it went band and 4wheel parts replaced it no charge earlier this year. Its now almost lost all of its fluid. i'm not too impressed with it but i'm not going to change it as i'm looking at a hydro assist kit.

I'll second this - I bought a new Teraflex SS and right out of the box it had 'dead spots' in the travel. I've stuck with the stock one for some time, but I'd like to upgrade (hence the TF SS purchase). I'll probably go with the Bilstein based on everyone's feedback.

Nope. My first one never even saw offroad. I just started getting a bad shimmy and checked things out and it was leaking. The second one started leaking right after I went mudding.
