Hey, those look really nice! Does it seem to ride any different? I am looking into this mod in the very near future and was just curious if there were any downsides. Thanks!

they have helped with axle wrap that i had due to the lift/block style and air bags. the truck seems tighter on turns better on going over speed bumps and does fine with articulation with them

cost? In order to help w/ground clearance would it be beneficial to install them on the top of the axle vs. the bottom? thanks.

the price is on the web site and the clearance really isnt a issue its the same amount as the shock mount. and I really dont know of the geometry benifit of going to the top of the axle if you did this you would be limited on the length and placement of the front of the bar even if your truck is lifted. but not saying it couldn't be done
