[QUOTE="Betarocker, post: 1491460, member: 477"] Compare a coilover strut to a regular spring/shock combo for equal sized lift and you'll notice that the coilover spring is about 4" shorter. So the truck is lift but with no increase of travel. There is a degree of adjustment but I wouldn't bother with one until approaching 10" of lift. The 4 links (actually 5 link because they still require a panhard bar) available as bolt on kits are for show as well. Some allow for greater flex than OEM radius arms, but the design and execution has zero similarities to rockcrawlers or KoH buggies. A true 4 link uses triangulated link arms and are not in plane with each other when view from the side. The bolt-on versions utilize parallel link arms ( or close to) and the design leads to brake dive, which also leads to higher body roll when slowing for corners. The videos below explain, as do more of them in the series.
