I think I've narrowed it down to either the Currie setup w/arms $2150, or Synergy setup w/arms and drag link kit for $2500 ... Will make some phone calls tomorrow and go from there. I'd really like to use the Evo plush ride coils, so could end up making somewhat of a "bastard" kit, but I'd rather buy something complete and go from there. I really do like the Evo stuff, but similar kits are $3600, I can't justify an extra grand for .25 larger diameter tubing on a couple of arms, otherwise the kits are very similar.

You know the max travel is for that kit? I think most of us are running into tub clearance issues but we don't want to raise our CG I know most of us want to stay LCG and max ground clearance. I'm looking at some fox shocks but I think they are too long.. They have 10" of travel (Fox Shocks 980-24-032-1) I think that is too much for 4" of lift.

I have the 9550s and they ride nice.
