I have seen them in a few rigs.
Only issue i have seen for now was a defective one that leaked.

Alot cheaper then Radflos but i started with the Biltstein 5100s up front.

If you're doing a UCA swap you should go with the MK84

That's one of the things that threw me off...the website says they recomend obly a 2 inch lift so do you really need to swap out the UCA for that? I'm leaning towards the Radflos upfront with Bilsteins in the back and 4x4 rear springs. From all the threads I've seen it seems the most successful.

So the difference is the length of the front shock
Radflo sell a non extended and extended version.
Extended means you replaced your UCA with either SPC (which is the best bang for your buck).
With the UCA you can get more down travel without major coil bucket contact.

You can get non extended Radflos the only difference is the top hat is smaller there for the coilover is shorter. That way you wont have to replace the UCA.

And if you're in the market for some new/used radflos there is the Xterra forum that always have some for sale alot cheaper.
