[QUOTE="Erik D_lux, post: 783481, member: 15954"] Yeah you have to have the air shocks setup really well but same goes for the coilover IMO. Lots of people try and run their air shocks at 1.5" of travel and I think thats why they dont work better. Your right though. You need to run enough pressure that they dont bottom out. That makes them want to unload. If you run a sway bar though like you should with a coilover or air shock it will reduce the side to side unloading and then the down hill unloading can be reduced with a small winch in the back. If you were to do coilover airs then you dont need to run so much N2 in them since you are now depending on springs for spring rate and you get alot of benefits that the air shock gives you. Either way to get a really good working suspension its tons of $$$$. Coils and good shocks are not a bad way to go, sucky thing is that a good pair of shocks is almost the same as air shocks. Hell you could even do an air shock in conjunction with your TJ springs and then rid yourself of the TJ springs when you have more money for the coilover springs. [/QUOTE]
