    Evo coilover question

    So I think I figured it out the source of the squeaking and clunking. Noise is coming from the rear passenger upper shock tower. Evo shock tower sitting on top of the stock tower, they rub together and squeak like a hay wagon, hitting it with lube clears it up. The clunking is the tub sitting...

    Thanks Eddie! I always loved the setup you had on Jet Li and it definitely inspired me to make the switch.

    Evo coilover question

    Well I pulled the trigger, I switched to Evo long arms and coilovers. I was pleasantly surprised at how similar the ride height and on-road manners are compared to the Fox setup, I was expecting a much stiffer ride and taller stance but no, it sits and rides almost the same, which is awesome...

    Evo coilover question

    I agree, i'm not thrilled with that part and it's why i'm wanting the switch, shame because they custom tune and give you spring rates based on your weight so you do get a really nice ride but lack of travel is bugging me, my wife thinks i'm nuts 🤦‍♂️

    Evo coilover question

    I have the 2.0 bolt on kit which just requires the shock tower to be trimmed similar to the instructions for the Evo kit, it's their 2.5 kit that removes the entire tower. Thanks for the heads up!

    Evo coilover question

    I think the 10.5" is total travel, so 5.25" uptravel and 5.25" down travel, at ride height the shocks sit right in the middle of the travel range which I think is one of their selling points. Front shock total extended length is 29" vs Evo which is around 35", so it's a gain of 6" going the Evo...

    Evo coilover question

    Thanks for the help guys, what prompted the question is I went down a path with my build and i'm having second thoughts on my choice of suspension. I wanted coilovers for the ride quality, adjustability, and travel/flex, my first instinct was Evo as that's what i've gone with in the past and...

    Evo coilover question

    I'm looking into installing this kit along with Evo's long arms in stages and could use some advice. I currently have Metalcloak arms, would it be ok to install the coilovers with limit straps now, and add the long arm kit later? Another option I was thinking was to install front & rear drop...
