I have 14" fronts on mine, and I know Eddie has them too. Unless somethings changed on his rig since I seen it last. Work great. I had the 12" on mine to start but wanted more. What else is new..........story of my life.

So prepare for a barrage of questions, whats the lowest you can set your lift in front? Can you achieve full stuff? What size tires do you have? Do you have pictures of your ride on flat ground? Pics of it flexxed out?

We install them and love them. Currently on the North American JK Experience we have run over 1000 miles of wheeling and Highway/Street and there is no other way to go. Awesome setup.

Oh and 1 more question, at full stuff, how much shock do you have left? Is the shock completely compressed or is there some room for more shock compression?

Wow! You weren't kidding on the questions. You can set it pretty low. I adjusted mine up to give myself a little more lift. Its the easiest thing to adjust just jack it up and back off the allen bolt that locks it and turn the collar. As you crank it down it lifts the rig. Retighten and your done. I have 37" tires and had to adjust the bump stops so as not to rip off my stock fender. So stuff is not a problem. Ride is by far the best thing. Smooth. When you hit the speed bumps at the Mall, you can barely feel them.

Honestly, I'm not trying to be a smartass or anything but you need to really call Mel at Offroad Evolution. He is the Guru of all this and he listened to me when I asked all kinds of questions. I love my coilovers, and its going down on the 22nd of this month to get his longarm kit on it. His system is badass!
