same here man, i'd reccomend some JRD a-arms cuz they're amazing a-arms for an amazing price...pretty much same thing as roll design but a tad better and cheaper! If you really want best of the best, get the laeger t-pin setup which allows a ton of unbinding shock travel but also comes at a price of around $2300 for just the arms :eek2: But definetly if you don't mind waiting, get axis or pep...i'd reccomend Axis triple rate adjustable rebound and compression fronts and Axis dual rate rear with adjustable rebound and compression...should do ya good :macho
JRD's phone# if you want it is 856-881-5299

If you want the best look at the Walsh products. I would go with Elka's and their rear linkage, or Axis with an aftermarket rear linkage.

If your going to run Houser then get their new LT kit for the rear! Suppose to make it much better.

I have Elka's and like them a lot, but would run Axis as well. I just like the Elka's all around.

The Laeger LT are $799. You can't ever go wrong with Laeger, but I think I would be running Walsh or Houser for MX because of the rear linkage setups. I just like running all the same brand for some reason.
