    I had the maxtrac kit that they came with but decided to sell it before I installed it. The guy I sold it to emailed me with the progress of his lift and said they were pretty weak and would need to be upgraded in the future. That seems to be the consensus from the few I've seen running them on here as well.

    im runing it, only because it came with the kit. all in all its a standard shock, it will be replaced when it starts to sag more. its satisfactory for now until i get some bilsteins 5100 ext or foxs. [​IMG]

    We sell a ton of them but keep in mind they are an entrylevel shock comparable to a Pro Comp or Rancho 5000.
