    Lol who is everyone? All of the major shock manufactures make a very similar product performance wise. I bought Kings because I like them. To me they are easier to figure out the valving, they do not require any special tools to take them apart, and after a fat deal from Tommy at Polyperformance they were the best priced too. I have had Sway Aways on my truck and I currently have Fox bump stops so I would recommend any of those or King, just choose a color and/or find the best price for you

    the only issue I had with SAW was parts are a little harder to get so you have to order them. King and FOX are nice because most shops carry parts for them. The rusting is only external so it really doesnt affect performance. If you are building a show truck your in the wrong sport anyway :p:D
