what shock would you pick?

Oh yeah! sorry, thanks for bringin this back... update: Running 3" plush coils front/back w/ Fox 2.0 remote res shocks. .5" steel spacer up front, 3/4 poly spacer on rear. Totaled just over 3.5" lift. My thoughts: The plush coils on road are tiny bit stiffer than I'd imagined, however still a huge improvement over my old rough RC coils. Given too, I went from Bilstein 5100's to Fox 2.0's and are known to be a bit stiffer on road. Still, great ride. Offroad however.... yep these are plush coils! this set up shines on the rough stuff. Washboard, pot holes, ruts, roots, rocks, anything at any speed is very smooth. Turns large hits into small smooth bumps. General conclusion, road: not as plush as I was expecting (considering shocks too) Off road though this thing is a completely different machine. Going from RC to this set up, my rig is in another league now.... Recommended!
