I have been thinking about these in design alot. Any one here use them? My only real question is, are they good on road?

vintagespeed said:Interesting article. And I thought tuning coil rates was difficult. The XJ is probably over the max. weight of airshox however, as Bill states here:
"Best suited to vehicles under about 3500 lbs, but fairing well on my 4700 lb trail-only rig - if a little firm in the ride department"
Especially if you have a winch & a real front bumper.
Economos said:Vintage, you're saying that the "sprung" weight of the XJ would be too heavy to run the Airshox only under the front?
vintagespeed said:Based off what I've READ, yes. These are a great option for light-weight buggies like Ron's but for a street-driven XJ? BTW, Fox coilover aren't any more expensive & coils are cheap. I'll be changing to Fox in a month or so.
Economos said:Why switch from SAWs (?) to Fox's? And what are ya gonna do with the ones under your rig now? :greensmok
