I have been running 5100's also, but just received a set of OME's that will be going on this week. Got them for $95 each, seems like a decent price. The Fox/BDS that metalcloak also recommends were about $124 each. (someone has to sell them cheaper, just didn't find any deals). Similar valving between them, so I figure I can just paint the ome's and come out way ahead. Some people like the Rancho 9000's. If the rebate is still going they come out to around $68 each, and they have that "try for 2 months" deal, so might be worth looking at I guess.

I installed the nemesis brackets on mine - they work perfect. I'm sure the MC ones do as well. What's the specific issue with the links? I didn't install mine as I had JKS already but I hadn't heard any issues regarding the links. I don't have any bowing of the springs BTW - at least not enough for me to notice.

I don't understand why that would be. I had my jeep flexed and the shocks were jammed up against the frame without even being at full flex. Maybe the plastic part of the upper shock has more give than the fox body? I don't know...I didn't like it.

I told him I was willing to buy them, but he said they weren't necessary so I'm taking him at his word I guess.
