The Racerunner/Swayaway models are fairly new and may not have filtered through to the Australian market.

Both available from Sean at abt4x4.com

As above, the fox versions have been around longer - that's why you see and hear more about them.

I purchased the first set of fox shox into Australia and at that point in time thats all there was available in the USA.

Now Sway-away and walker evans produce similar products.

The Haultech Boys have purchased Fox shox due to the fact that we have used them and set them up before and know they work and also they are cheaper. (at this point in time)

If i was to buy a set of Air shox now i would not even bother trying to find out which one is better, i believe they are all very good. It would just come down to which ones i could get cheaper and which ones are available.
