Hi saw that you are now carrying most of the 4xfourArt suspension kit...do you have pics of the setup on your rig and can you comment on the performance, especially the normal road/highway drive. Looks nice...keep up the good work. B)

Hello, yes i have most of the 4'' 4xfa kit parts, such as radious arms, panar lowering brackets and coils.

The coils are stiff but not so much in order to be enoing. I travel with 110 km/h and is ok.

With 3 people and luggage the car was not sat down at all.

With the 4'' coils i have installed 31'' with a bit trimming. For me the 4'' coils are the best ever tested, and

belive me, i have made a lot of tests with others until i got these. I will send tommorow better pics.

Gee... thanks alot for your reply, I've been having a hard time deciding what to do about this lift but i think you pretty much have me sold on the suspension. Only thing i'm nervous with now is that the company does not do credit card purchases and i'll have to do a bank draft. That way i won't be able to trace or track the shipment. What do you advise... have you seen the company or the owners, i need some re-assurance. :unsure: By the way the jeep looks times better on the silver rims. Good job B)

why don't you try one of the UK suppliers to see if they will ship to you

Jimnybits, Bigjimny, Off road armory ship most places worldwide and Bits for vits, and take credit cards or paypal

My packege was delivered by the big boss of the 4xfa himself , at Evros Adventure Trophy last year.

Very nice person. I dont think you are going to have any problems.

They do bussiness all across europe and middle east, so i think they are ok.

Were are you from?

Had a bit of internet issues....thanks for the input guys. Panosd...I'am from the caribbean island of Barbados.To Darth'.... I checked all of the sites and piece for piece of each kit compared to each other i'll be saving around 400-700+Usd with the 4xfourArt kit at the end including shipping between the ORA kit , KAP, D&G, Bigjimny and JimnyBit. One of my bigeest issues is that i would prefer not to put multiple brands together and put more parts on the jeep than are needed because i can't get the height suspension lift i want. I found jimnybits has a really good site with lots of stuff but not making rear arms is a bummer.Other than that with stuff being out of stock at a few locations i'll have to ship small packages from more than one place. Shipping will be more expensive than the actual parts in some cases. :S

The fact that i want to start of with the best suspension kit (and by 'kit' mean 'most' of everything from the same place designed and tested to work together ) for the height and ruggedness and than move on to a bodylift (which i'll rather avoid) is another factor. Parts aren't right around the corner so i gotta try hard to get this right or i'll have to break a bank. Panosd keep up the good work, your jeep is my inspiration.

Today i found the pics from my front arb instalation with the HD axleshafts and cv joint.
On pics the clean are the hd and those with the grease are the stock one.







As you can see, they are a straight replacement and they can handle until 33'' tires with front arb locked.
