    I've only ever used triflow and it works for me.

    Love love love ADS though. They started as a machining shop before getting into the shock game. Their internal tolerances are lower than any other shock company. Aka less likely to leak and more reliable. I've toured their shop in Tucson. Watched them build my front coilovers. I have the main guy's, Brian, phone number. So customer service is as easy as a text, but I've never had a problem other than moving the resi's to clear my tires.

    Another question on Tacoma/4runner compatability.

    A member with a 2nd gen tacoma is interested in my front set up. You guys think the shock hoop and LCA skids are interchangeable?

    If so, I'm gonna hop on that GB and buy some ADS so they can get built.

    The secondary shock hoop is the only thing I'm not positive will transfer over. You can contact Icon (HAHA) and ask

    I mean progressive vs digressive. I'm sure they'd make a quick sell since they're still in good condition but it's not practical for me. If I see a used set of Kings, Fox, or ADS, I'll probably hop on them but I don't need them bad enough to buy new

    The adjustability of the clickers is the best man. I love that I can stiffen the ride up on the road or when the tent is on and let it loose offroad.

    I can't speak for other manufacturers, but if you were to order ADS coilovers I believe it's only an extra $150 to gets resi's. Which is worth it just for resale. Mine were right around $1450 shipped through DSM
    I probably drive faster than I should for midtravel and without a cage, but I've never been disappointed by my front coilovers.
