Installed front and rear. Excited to test out.
Install was stupid easy. Took 1½ hour, hardest part was getting stock spring out since it had the 2" spacer. Worked out well since these are built with a 2" lift also, I took measurements before and after I installed and drove it a min. 1 side was 1/16 higher.
I went with the stage 2 but they go all the way up to a stage 6. I do worry a bit that I should have went with a stage 1 though.
Valving when they were getting made, free. But now I would need to un install, ship to King, wait and I think it's about $100 per shock, then shipping back and install. So not really worth it at this point unless something needed a big change.
I did bump up the pressure to about 52/53 in the rear.
Found a little spot in the dirt that looks like 3 speed bumps right next to each other, about 6" tall, has a little kick up before and down after. Hit it at about 45mph... hardly could tell it was there.
We have this railroad crossing a couple miles from my house that I have hit at 60+ a few times and man it feels like I am FLYING lol. Probably only get like 8" of air really tho lol.
Probably only 8"?!? Lol. I will have to see if I can get someone to record over the RR tracks.

How did she feel in the dirt and in the air? Happy with the valving or wish you had done something different?
No tube bumper, only messing around. It's not a parking lot princess but I dont plan to be too stupid with it.
The valving seems good too me. I work and live on a farm and do a far amount of driving, so it has worked out great for me so far. If I was to get more off road or desert I would have definitely wished I gone to a stage 3 or maybe 4.
I do have a video that I took those clips from. It almost looks boring, you cant even see coming off the ground or the landing. In the cab was even smoother. Once I get a few clips I'll make a short video.
