    After a long wait I finally got them and all I can say is wow. What a difference in ride and handling. Thanks for Duval off-road Designs for getting me an immediate appointment for install. After waiting a year for them it was the longest 4 day wait ever.. lol I was amazed that they just bolted in and fit like a glove. The addition of some Deaver springs to balance out the install for a total of 2 inches of lift. I was always happy with the way my offroad addition drove but was constantly bottoming out when loaded down. Now this thing rides amazing. Feels stout but still smooth. Dramatic difference, it just feels sure of its self.

    dont worry trdt44 they should be shipping the rears very soon. I had the 8112 since feb but it took this long for them to get the 8100's out. But now that they are here I would imagine they are available... You wont be disappointed!

    You can find the fronts for less than $1,500 for the pair. The rear will be about the same. Autoanything matched the lowest price i could find.

    It's not about jumping it, it's about getting good alignment numbers.

    *never mind seen you bought some.
