XGS Tiger Adjustibles?

Get the kit from MetalTech?

Post up how you like it, I've seen lots of back and forth between the OME and TJM guys about the kits on IH8MUD, gets kinda confusing.

I got my locally (rocky road outfitters) because I don't have to pay shipping and he gave me a decent price. I can't wait to try them. I don't have bumpers or a winch or drawers or any of that and I DD mine 20-40 miles a day so ride quality was important to me, I will pull a trailer with it though and do plan on loading it down heavy right away (white rim coming up) but for the most part, I just need a cush ride and better departure angles. IH8MUD can be great, but its also full of people who want to tell you what you need/don't need or that you should have bought _______ instead of offering decent review bias. Great for helping a guy out of a pinch though.

Some assembly required?

My lame-ass hasn't picked up any decent suspension yet...is it typical for new suspension to show up disassembled (or am I an idiot reading into the image too much)?

no, its basically as you see it, but the shocks and coils are seperate anyway so its not like i have to make a strut out of them. Its actually super easy:

Unbolt, swing the axle down, remove coils and shocks by hand, put new coils in, bolt up shocks and go. Well minus the new bushing i need to press inup front, im going to let a shop handle that

Oh, I'm a dork. I've become very accustomed to coilovers. Never mind then :)
