    What kind of offroading do you do? Ive been thinking of getting the RAS but according to Roadmaster they do not recommend offroad use of the RAS

    Woah, I should have read that before I purchased the RAS! I just do forest roads and mild trails.

    I think youre good. Id be worried with extreme articulation as the RAS in only hooked on one side.

    How are these holding up for you? Have you done any further wheeling with them to say how they handle offroad?

    So far so good. I don't do any serious off roading that requires major articulation. On the highway, gravel roads, and mild trails the ride quality is great and there's no more sag or bottoming out. The only negative so far is that the RAS components and springs do rattle a bit on bumps. That's probably typical for any leaf-spring suspension.
