[QUOTE="LittleTankTJ, post: 937562, member: 14520"] Maybe it's just the ranchos in the front then. I liked how the ranchos reacted to a speedbump in the front more than the black max. But with the BM in the rear and ranchos in the front I would get front back swaying after bumps. BMs don't do that. My ranchos in the rear were dead enough that they didn't self extend after I removed them. So not a fair comparison That being said, BMs on the front are much nicer on small potholes and uneven road. But worse on speed bumps. I have both in my daily commute. But it's easier to take speed bumps slow. Edit: other minor annoyance with the BMs is routing the brake line. Before I could tie it to the rancho can. [/QUOTE]
