Pro comps?
And I like that Exo it looks like it belongs on that jeep! Are you running limiting straps front and rear?

Yes, procomps. And just running limiting straps in the rear. The front doesn't need them as of yet. But it will get them when I do the 3 link

How are they?
Tough side wall?
And makes sense with the limiting straps.
Is the 4 link something I could do with out a garage and in a driveway?

It's a soft compound, so the ride is decent and traction is pretty nice. But the sidewall is not very tough. I haven't punctured one yet, but I've taken a few chunks out.

I don't see why you couldn't build a 4 link in driveway. Quite a few people have

So I was reading your build thread tonight (Nice btw, loving the rear coils) and I stumbled upon the part where you were talking about the hp44 and ford 9 in your shop.

Then I noticed something on CL

Does it happen to be this hp44 and ford 9?
