I'm curious what the most common brand is in this forum. I have my suspicions but lets see how the poll turns out. I know there are some more brands out there but this covers the main ones.

Please select the brand and size.
Think you will find the ones that preform better than factory but cost the least will be the winner here.

I went with the Eibach and have been extremely happy with them. Originally I wanted to go with the Bilstein but they were backordered and I wanted them installed before our month long trip in June. I think any of the top brands will be a huge improvement over the factory set up.

Oh, you'd better add the Old Man Emu to your list or Chris @Frenchy will be along to give you an ear full. :lipssealed:?

I did the Bilsteins all around

While they're not technically a coil over replacement since they reuse the factory spring, they are a very popular (and worthy) upgrade on here.

Just because it is the most used does not always mean best quality. Just something to keep in mind. That said it also depends on what your use will be.

I've enjoyed the Fox 2.0. I went with them because I got a deal. I also had icon rear shocks and was pretty disappointed in them. Changed to Fox and the Icons seemed worn out already after less than 40k miles

Is the Fox 2.0 different than the Ford/Fox kit? They look similar, but someone suggested the springs on one have more loops than the other. I wonder if valving is similar. I just picked up a set of the Ford/Fox leveling kit, but don't have it installed yet.

I think the spring rate is the only thing different. Internals and such is all the same I believe

Its either the spring rate or the valving that is different for the Ford Performance Kit and the Rouch Kit compared to the Fox Kit. Why you ask? Because they can
