Sway Away Shocks!
First impression with my new front and rear SAWs after todays install: very nice.
At 25K miles, a noticeable difference from that of the stock setup (with the Daystar spacers up front). Biggest diff: no more possibility of UCA interference with the coil due to the decreased diameter of the new spring. The street ride definitely feels better. The rears; they just look cool, more later when I hit the jeep trails and washboard stuff ...
As far as other mfrs. shocks, I will say that you should do your homework. Lots of claims out there, I don't need to say any more other than I checked it all out extensively. Results? SAW is the way to go for me, considering the price and the half dozen times a year I go out and get dirty. And 4WP won my business, again.
I would also caution against $ome apparently $elf $erving claims I've $een on thi$ $ite(thi$ po$t in particular) that $eem to be a bit more prevalent these days. I don't lurk here other than to seek advice from end-users such as myself. I'd prefer to see the site remain that way, and NO advertisements in the main body of the forums. Thanks.
Pics (and some limited off road review) to follow in future posts...

I'm glad you're happy with the shocks though. I loved my Kings when I had them on my truck. They are truly a work of art.

As far as self serving claims....
I have run camburg on my own ranger (their 6.0 dual shock kit with uniball spindle and upper arm) and know the company and the guys that work there. I have also ridden in many trucks with camburg suspension and the quality of their products is top notch. Also, I can get SAW with ease, but I still recommend going with camburg because I know that they have done their own testing for the F150 specifically and have changed the stock valving that SAW uses.
As many know on this forum, I don't push products because I like pushing products, I push them because I am either using it, have used it, or REALLY believe in the company/product.
Thanks
