Hi, im looking for a bit of info on the Coil-over hydrolic shocks which some of the tough trucks run(the ones which can jack the truck up or down from incab adjustment)? cant seem to find any info on them. i am only assuming that they are hydrolic and not air? Can anyone shed some light on the subject???

Cheers
Ash

Hey Joshy, Mate what brands are available? are they an off the shelf item or do you buy a shock and modify it? if so whats involved in modifying the shock and set up require to run the in cab auto leveling and ride height adjustment?

Only ones i know of are Dobbin's and OPW's. Same idea with both but executed slightly differently with Petes being more compact. There "off the shelf", give Pete at OPW a call. Or check out my members thread to see what ive had to do to get it all working. The coilovers arnt cheap, then theres everything else you need to run them.
I dont think anyone runs Auto leveling.
